Gconf keys, there is another thread from Addison about MCE stop/starting with the keys but we've had no success getting them automatically restored after a restart. I did write a little program to restore brightness and should probably call it when asui-setting's MCE restart button is pressed. Added a note on the TODO page for when I get back, unless one of you wants to do it.

I've actually seen SystemUI not respond to power button, try restarting it from asui-settings instead of rebooting. Although, it could also be a problem with MCE not sending the method call to SystemUI, try restarting MCE.

The button actions on the MCE page are read from /etc/mce/mce.ini each time the page is opened and changing the action writes to that file. It does require a restart of MCE for the changes to take effect.

All these MCE troubles is probably why powerlaunch has its own MCE clone. Maybe when I get back someone will have written Advanced MCE.
