Dear all,
I just got a laptop (some old vaio model which I do not recall. I will edit again, if needed to give the mmodel).
I have noticed that when I press the power off button (opensuse 12.2 with XFCE) the laptop shut downs. Before installing the opensuse I have tried xubuntu live edition and opensuse live cd with kde to check laptop compatability. Both those two distros when I was pressing the power off button were showing the dialog box, with the sleep, shutdown , hibernate options.
There might be some way to alter the behaviour I have and change it either to sleep, or make it show the pop up with the options.
In Xfce’s control center there is such an option under the power options but it does not work. I
It seems there is some other place that “controls” what my laptop does when the power button is pressed.

gnome in oS 11.4 does that. Obviously xfce has not that functionality
implemented.
