Comment 5 for bug 68490

My attempts to disable this feature have thus far been thwarted:

   * The gnome-session package depends on the acpi packages that do the suspend/hibernate stuff. So I can't uninstall those without some pain.

   * I tried booting with "acpi=off" ... but the kernel can't handle it. It appears to cycle through pci addresses, sending a command to an address and waiting for it to timeout. Maybe that's the only way it can detect pci devices without acpi? I don't know. I waited about 15 minutes and it still hadn't finished booting. So I can't disable acpi.

   * If I remove gnome-power-manager from my gnome session, that keeps the crescent-moon key from doing anything, and the suspend/hibernate options don't show up in the quite dialog. HOWEVER, bringing up the quit dialog starts gnome-power-manager if it's not already running. So the second time the quit dialog comes up, the suspend/hibernate options are there.
