For my headless servers my power button triggers "my own" interrupt within a python button monitor. In other words, instead of responding to the system interrupt I built a button monitor ( will post this next week ) that allows for a -SIGHUP as well as the button push.
Yes, perhaps an unfortunate choice of words... interrupt is the more proper word to have used, but then that would require explaining it to ensure it's meaning was clear! But it gets the point across still... als long as you don't confuse it with a display monitor! xD
Glad to hear you've got something in progress... I was going to adapt a nice blink/power service someone made for the Chip, but if you have something working already, that'll be the way to go.
I don't use the pine64 serial adapter, so good point for anyone who does. The pins I had still wouldn't have fit as they were too big for the holes, but a minor re-drilling is all they would have needed as they were so close to fitting.
Did you see my second post above re: android? Was it you commenting about the power button and android freezing... or was I confusing with another post about debian?
