There is a potential workaround for this issue. In GConf (using gconf-editor, for example) set the key
/apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac to the value 'nothing' without single quotes. Still, there should be a GUI option for this. The functionality is there and seems to work for me, I don't understand why this would be removed. -- [Regression] No "do nothing" for laptop lid closed action https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416236 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
