Hiya. First mail to a mailing list ever so I apoligize for anything I shouldn't have done. Thought that maybe this should be a question on askubuntu, but this way it's problably better.
I'm running Lubuntu 14.04, and loving the blazing speed. It's the fastest OS I ever had. I can run a 64 bit system on 738MB RAM. The only thing I don't like is the power manager. I can't get it to work. I set 'Laptop Mode' on in 'Default applications for LXSession', xfce4-power-manager starts up correctly, handles everything correctly, except putting the computer to sleep. I heard that xfce4-power-manager isn't patched to work with systemd. I found a solution on Ask Ubuntu that will enable xfce4-power-manager to put the laptop to sleep when the lid shuts down, by setting "HandleLidSwitch" in /etc/systemd/logind.conf to "ignore". I tried, and indeed, xfce4-power-manager was able to put the laptop to sleep on lid close, but it was buggy (it didn't sleep every time), and it didn't lock the screen. So I tried the opposite, as suggested in the answer. I set "HandleLidSwitch" to the default (suspend), and turned off all lid actions in xfce4-power-manager. A little improvment, but still, doesn't work all the time, sometimes fails or just ignores, but at least it locks the screen. Has anyone here got a working power manager? If yes, how? -- Juraj Fiala <doctorjellyf...@riseup.net> -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
