Title:
Laptop does not suspend on lid close when external display is
connected
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I've configured my laptop to suspend when the lid is closed (in gnome-
control-center's Power panel). It works ok as long as there is no
external display connected. However when I connect my external LCD,
laptop IS NOT suspended (external display is turned off though).
I've done some research and found out that problem is in gnome-
settings-daemon package: There is code in gsd-power-manager.c in
do_lid_closed_action function which checks whether there are any
active external outputs and if it finds any, it prevents suspending. I
believe that in this case we should honor what's set in gnome-control-
center and suspend. Patch which removes this logic is attached.
