The FeatureSettings section will probably be there, so just add the other line after it. And make sure you use a Linux line end aware editor.

With the above in place, sliding the power switch will take the screenshot. Unfortunately, you can't use the power switch to wake the device or turn it off. But, if you use a sleep cover, that isn't as important.
Thanks for that info. Isn't it risky being without the power switch though? I know my Glo has locked up several times (although not recently) where it was impossible to do anything except a factory reset using the power button. What happens in that instance, the power button won't function to do the factory reset?
