The patch causes a quite little bug. If you manually suspend with apm -s and
let the simpad wake up with the power button you will need to press the button
twice. This is because apm cannot count the presses of power button and you
need to count the presses. Else powerd makes apm -s for each time you are
pressing the button which ends in the problem, that by pressing the button for
power on the device will power off.

This bug should be solvable via patching apm/apmd instad of writing a power off
daemon.

Because of woglinde I came to the conclusion that a kernel side power off would
be nice. I am wondering why the old 2.4 driver was made as switches. I wrote to
the linux-arm list and asked about what will be the best creating a userland
application or using a kernel space driver.

Any ideas and comments are very welcome :)
