pbbuttonsd init script is not re-enable after an upgrade (the original
package doesn't handle upgrade smoothly).
In fact, the smoother way to upgrade is:
backup your /etc/pbbuttonsd.conf file.
rpm -e pbbuttonsd pbbutons-gtk
rpm -i pbbuttonsd-0.5.9-1.ppc.rpm pbbuttons-gtk-0.6.2-1.ppc.rpm
rpm -i pbbuttons-powerprefs-0.4.3-1.ppc.rpm
To use the newer GTKPBButtons, you have to restart X11.
