You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: compiz
To reproduce: 1) Go to System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts 2) Find the entry for suspend, and choose some shortcut. 3) Press the shortcut. What I see: The screen briefly goes blank, and then returns within a second. There is no report of any attempt to suspend in .xsession-errors or in dmesg, or dbus-monitor. I don't think the suspend command is being run correctly by the shortcut, because when I choose Suspend from the panel menu (fast user switching applet, aka indicator-applet-session), it works. A workaround: 1) Install compizconfig-settings-manager 2) Open the "Commands" preference panel. 3) Enter, e.g., for command line 0: dbus-send --session --dest=org.gnome.ScreenSaver --type=method_call /org/gnome/ScreenSaver org.gnome.ScreenSaver.Lock ; dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power /org/freedesktop/DeviceKit/Power org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power.Suspend (you may omit the first command if you don't want the screen to lock) 4) Switch to the Key Bindings tab, and define a key binding for the corresponding command.
