Title:
Won't honor "Do Nothing" when Lid is Closed
Status in Gnome Powermanager:
New
Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
My laptop is plugged in, and as you can see (in the attached
screenshot) I've selected to "Do Nothing" when the lid of my laptop is
closed. However, each time I close the lid, it goes into "suspend"
mode. I've even set it to "Do Nothing" for both "unplugged" and
"plugged". No matter what I select, when I close the lid, it goes into
suspend mode.
Right now, I'm trying to watch a movie on my big screen tv (as a
secondary monitor). I'd like to shut my laptops lid (powering its
native monitor off), while the movie plays on the external TV monitor.
However, I'm unable to do this because the gnome-power-manager won't
honor the power settings as they are shown in the attached screenshot.
