Hello, I just upgraded to KPowersave 0.7.2 (from 0.7.1) to get the power button working on my laptop and wanted to bring a couple issues to your attention. First, I had to make some system changes that I didn't see anywhere in the KPowersave documentation. Working from this document: http://cabibbo.physics.wm.edu/~bryan/computer/inspiron5100.html , I did the following:
In /etc/X11/xorg.conf, added to Section "Module": Load "dri" In /boot/grub/menu.lst, added option: acpi_irq_balance The power button and lid sense don't work without both of these changes in place. This is on a Dell Inspiron 5100, openSUSE 10.2, KDE 3.5.5 release "45", 2.6.18.2-34-default. I'm not sure if these changes might helpful to other users or where they should be documented. The second issue was that the "Lock screen" option works for the lid close event, but not for stand by and suspend event. I'm thinking I can work around the issue by configuring a "before suspend" option to lock the screen, so not a big deal really. Thanks for the great work.
