VDR ACPI power button handling daemon (vdrpbd) ---------------------------------------------- vdrpbd is meant to be used on VDR based HTPC systems as a replacement for the usually used "acpid". Its primary task is to forward the hardware power button on mainboards to VDR so VDR can initiate a clean shutdown process. Features: - Faster than acpid with all the required external scripts. - Emergency reboot feature. You don't loose the power button as safe emergency exit button. Just press it four times within three seconds and a clean reboot is triggered. - Very easy to set up. If you want, you can just copy the "vdrpbd" file to your VDR system and execute it. VDR should react to the power button immediately! - Systemd integration. If systemd is detected, then vdrpbd tries to register itself as "power button inhibitor". The module "Net::DBus" is required for this to work. Note that this requires systemd version 201 or later and vdrpbd has to be started by systemd (systemctl start vdrpbd): http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-April/010171.html For older systemd versions you have to add the following line to your /etc/systemd/logind.conf: HandlePowerKey=ignore
