[libavg-users] Power button disabled during fullscreen?

[Maarten Burie]

Hi Uli,

Yes I've verified this. The system shutdown using the power button works 
perfect when the player is not running and when the player is running in 
a window (not fullscreen). I don't know if the shutdown works under 
9.04, currently i've not a system available with this version.

Through ssh a shutdown or reboot works when the player is fullscreen, so 
it looks like the power button event is somehow blocked. Any ideas?

If you are sure libavg isn't the problem, I will contact the Xibo 
developers again, maybe there is another cause.

Regards,

Maarten

I assume you have made sure that there are no issues shutting down when the player isn't running? Does the shutdown work under 9.04 in your case? Have you verified that everything works when libavg isn't running fullscreen?
