Disable the Power Button or make it do something else

[User 22018]

Hi, dont know for i3, on sway i did :

1/ inhibit powerbutton in systemd/logind.conf

HandlePowerKey=ignore

2/ sway/config

# power button
bindsym XF86PowerOff exec ~/bin/wayland_toggle_screen.sh

3/ with wayland_toggle_screen.sh :

#!/bin/sh
read lcd < /tmp/lcd
    if [ "$lcd" -eq "0" ]; then
        swaymsg "output * dpms on"
        echo 1 > /tmp/lcd
    else
        swaymsg "output * dpms off"
        echo 0 > /tmp/lcd
    fi

it works nice (powerbutton does switch screen on/off)

Hi. I did 1 and for 2 I added this line to the shutdown code:


# Set shut down, restart and locking features
bindsym $mod+0 mode "$mode_system"
bindsym XF86PowerOff mode "$mode_system"

My only thought is maybe its a different key code on ANSI keyboard?
