Description Bastien Nocera 2013-11-08 13:28:34 UTC 
From https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711682:

In bug 707095, we created new keybindings that behave slightly differently for
when in the lock/unlock screens, and allowed the power key keybinding to be
used in the login screen.

However, that brought up 2 bugs in gnome-shell:
- you can't capture the same keybinding for 2 different modes (so g-s-d would
know that it's in the lock screen and make sure not to show polkit or
interactive dialogues in the lock screen)
- when in gdm, the keybinding mode is LOCK_SCREEN instead of LOGIN_SCREEN

When those 2 bugs are fixed, it should be possible to shutdown the machine by
pressing the power button in the lock screen after having changed the button's
behaviour:
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power button-power "shutdown"

And ditto in gdm:
# cat >/etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/01-power <<EOF
[org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power]
button-power="shutdown"
EOF
# dconf update

May I ask if there's any news about this bug? We use the "power button" with virtual machines quite frequently. Thank you.
Comment 4 Laszlo Ersek 2015-03-16 11:30:52 UTC 
Sixteen months have passed since this bug was filed, and no updates. Well done.

Florian, did the upstream fix for this go into 3.14 ?

No, 3.16 only. The patches themselves should be easy enough to backport, but they change private API between gnome-shell and gnome-settings-daemon, so some coordination is required.
