Description

This patch forbids a remote logged in user to use the powersave dbus interface, e.g. to suspend the machine. When doing cpu frequency scaling, the nice factor was not considered correctly. The patch also fixes a problem were an acpi button press was not ignored after coming back from sleep and so the system shut down again. If the haldaemon is not running, powersave opens dbus connections without closing them afterwards.
