Hi,
Could someone tell me how can I stop a laptop going into standby when i
close the lid?

I checked apm but could not find this option that triggers the whole
process, could someone point me to the file that contains this
ON_LID_CLOSE=/usr/bin/apm suspend now
or similar command please? I can not find it in the bios. Another OS can
disable it...

JG

I have tired the following

server flags section

 Option NoPM  boolean

Monitor section

 Option  DPMS  off

and

Section Device

 Option  power_saver



All with no luck, it still 'Saves to RAM'
In the bios i had it on custom with each one disabled, now i have it
just on all disabled instead of custom.

occasionall it does not go off, which is odd, but every time while i
have been testing today it has.

I dont want to cut off the switch and then leave the screen light on, i
would like to just close the lid for carrying around the office, but it
goes into suspend each time tho..
