hi folks, running a debian 2.6.18 kernel on a mostly-ubuntu edgy system, I'd like to find a way to bind the "hibernate" key on my laptop to some function. the laptop is a dell latitude d820
as far as I can tell the keypress is not being intercepted by acpi.
acpi_listen records when the "StandBy" key is pressed, but not
"hibernate". xev gives the following information when I press the key:
KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001,
root 0x5c, subw 0x0, time 343812725, (1029,531), root:(1044,636),
state 0x0, keycode 165 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
i'd like to get this key to produce a hibernation event -- in my case,
since I'm running a suspend2-patched kernel, the event would be:
sudo hibernate -F /etc/hibernate/suspend2.conf
Is there a way for me to do this in gnome? I looked through the
keyboard settings and I can't see any way to bind to a sleep event.
I should perhaps also say that gnome-power-manager is turned off, since
it works way less well for both suspend and hiberntion than the
hibernate package does.
thanks much,
matt
