I don't have access to the machine I was using when I originally reported this (an Asus 1008HA) as it's been lent to a family member. However, I now have Maverick installed dual-boot on my Macbook Pro (ubuntu-desktop, not netbook edition) and can report that the behaviour is indeed as expected now.
For the avoidance of doubt, "as expected" means as per original report, options laptop lid closed on mains->blank screen; laptop lid closed on battery->suspend; close lid on mains, it blanks screen but keeps running; pull mains lead out, it suspends. This is, for me at least, the desired and expected behaviour, so I think we can close this. :-) -- if laptop lid already closed, doesn't detect when it should suspend when mains power removed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/442634 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
