Hi,
I have a Dell Latitude 830 laptop with Fedora 12. I never move it,
so I want to be able to close to lid and just use monitor, but my OS
shuts down automatically.
Is there a way to enable this and if so, please tell me how
I am using Xfce but I could switch to Gnome.
Thank you,
Edmon
CLick on system -> Preferences -> screensaver
From Screensaver window, click on Power Management (it's near the
bottom to the right sight, but
left og the "close" button.
Now you will see a nother window which has in it the Action section.
"When laptop lid is closed" select an action.
On my version of Fedora, I chose blank screen.
However, it "/might/" also end up blanking the external monitor as well.
What is missing from this set of actions is "Do nothing".
