On my system - Thinkpad T61 everything worked fine until the GNOME update yesterday (that was also supposed to solve Bug #389857) after which closing the laptop lid never suspends the system. Using the "suspend command" works perfectly.
Additionally when I open "Power Management Preferences" I see that the behavior for "when laptop lid is closed" is set to "Shutdown" for both "on AC" and "on battery", and I can't change it - if I change it and press close, when I open the preferences dialog again it is still set to "shutdown". I'm not sure if this is the same bug. -- suspend when closing laptop lid doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44058 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
