Description Oliver Grawert 2006-07-17 23:50:44 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Add support to listen for the KEY_COFFEE events that hal exposes over dbus Involves attaching to the system dbus and listening for signals from hal. Should permit the lock-screen buttons on lots of keyboards to work (modulo kernel/acpi support). This is an enhancement used in ubuntu whch might be intresting for other OSes as well.

Steps to reproduce:

I've committed a patch based on this to HEAD.  It will be in the release today.  Please test this out as I don't have a coffee key on my keyboard.  Thanks.
