Description BlaisorBlade 2005-04-19 14:45:05 UTC

Quoting from /etc/acpi/events/default:

# event keeps a regular expression matching the event. To get
# power events only, just use something like "event=button power.*"
# to catch it.
...
event=button power.*

action=/sbin/init 0

Actually, on both my system (from what I see with cat /proc/acpi/events when 
acpid disabled) and on Mandrake default config, the correct string is 
button/power:

event=button/power (PWR.|PBTN)
(even button.power would suffice). The same applies to other buttons:

event=button/lid LID

However, I read that the correct string should be button[ /]power, because 
both messages have been used in various ACPI code releases.

Note: I use acpid-1.0.4
