Hi Rafael / Len,

Got some more time to test:

- It's indeed giving one event for both registered power buttons (which in reality
are just one hardware button) printing acpid's "%e" revealed that:
1421672289-161192235 | button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000
1421672289-279647745 | button/power LNXPWRBN:00 00000080 00000004

So i tested on another box (amd instead of intel), and that also registers 2
power buttons:

# dmesg | grep -i button
[ 13.435060] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0C0C:00/input/input0
[ 13.435294] ACPI: Power Button [PWRB]
[ 13.435495] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input1
[ 13.435683] ACPI: Power Button [PWRF]

So the question is .. should both register and should scripts adjust to pick up just one of them ?
Or can, as a more general solution, just one be ignored when registering ?
