Actually here's a better question: will this patch allow *suspend* (not just screen blanking) when the laptop lid closes? I saw in another bug that several apps are getting dbus calls added for various reasons to prevent suspend.
This is a *really* bad idea.. it damages laptops! If the user has left headphones plugged in or muted the sound, it will prevent the laptop from suspending when the lid closes, which means overheating in the laptop and damaged components and shorter hardware lifespan. Laptop lid close should trump all, for hardware safety if for no other reason. -- Hardy rhythmbox stops screen from blanking on laptop lid close https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193617 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
