'Sleep' Function

[Jason DeVita]

Take a look in "/etc/pbbuttonsd.conf".  That sets all the power management
stuff.  There's a man page for pbbuttonsd.conf that'll tell you what
everything is.  I think you'll need to restart pbbuttonsd for the changes
to take effect.  "/etc/init.d/pbbuttonsd restart" should do the trick, I
think.
