power key press event
 
Hi,

is there any way to catch the press event of the powerkey?
I tried both with dbus and hal, but I didn't find anything useful.
Any hint?

Hi,

powerlock uses HAL as far as I know. Maybe you could check that out.

Yes, right but I was looking in the wrong way. I needed to simply add a call to libhal_ctx_set_device_condition() and all works as expected.
Thanks for your help!

Just a quick note: libhal_ctx_set_device_condition() won't fire the callback until you have a libhal_device_add_property_watch().
This is by libhal's design as it will only add a dbus watch rule if add a property watch even if you are only interested in the "conditions".
