Hello list, Having used quite old and slow machines for so many-many moons, I finally got my hands on a relatively new PC and thought that it was time to check on that "new" Gnome that I have been reading complaints on lists and forums for years!
The PC: HP motherboard, Intel Core i3-4170 CPU @ 3.70GH, 4 GB RAM. The installed system: Debian 8 Jessie (Stable) with Gnome Anyway, my problem is that I can not make Automatic Suspend to work. >From Gnome Settings --> Power --> Suspend & Power Off: I am setting "Automatic Suspend" to "On". I set the time to the minimum available (15 minutes, just for testing purposes). When I come back the PC seems to be on and working as normal but the screen is black and nothing seems to happen until I hard reboot (ie hold the PC's power button for a few seconds). Suspend-and-resume is working as expected when I "press ALT before clicking the shutdown button in the user menu" (see: https://wiki.debian.org/Suspend) as well as when I issue the command "systemctl suspend" from a terminal. I have tried to find some info from Gnome's documentation and have found that I can open gnome-tweek-tool from the Alt+F2 command line where there is a setting for Power --> Power Button Action where I can choose from the available (Blank, Hibernate, Interactive, Logout, Nothing, Shutdown and Suspend) but nothing seems to change on Gnome's Settings Power menu. Thanks in advance, Dalios
