Cool, so I probably need:
XKBLAYOUT = gb
also, which of the above is the correct lts.conf location?
I know you're preparing a default lts.conf which is a good idea. It would
be really helpful to have a doc or wiki page somewhere which listed _every_
directive which can be set in lts.conf and if possible every possible value
(within reason, I realise this wouldn't be possible for something like X
modes).

I see. I'll probably go with removing the gnome-power-manager for now.
Can one set global gconf keys and if so how is it done? I presume a user
could probably over-ride this but that's not so much of a concern. My fear
is that a user will hit hibernate thinking that they can return to their
programs when they login again (as gnome currently advertises).
