Ubuntu precise (development branch) 12.04 2. Installed: 3.3.91-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 3.3.91-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 3.3.91-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3. When closing the lid, the machine (MacbookPro 5,3) doesn't suspend. Using suspend from the power menu, or using pm-suspend works fine. The lid action is detected fine, and upower reports lid close correctly. Running gnome-settings-daemon --debug gives me the following output: -- ** DEBUG: Syncdaemon not running, waiting for it to start in NameOwnerChanged === Applying Configuration Configuration === Clone: false Output: Unknown attached to default status: on width: 1440 height: 900 rate: 50 primary: true position: 0 0 power-plugin-DEBUG: keyboard toggle on power-plugin-DEBUG: lid is closed; not suspending nor hibernating since some external monitor outputs are still active ** DEBUG: Updating client: index=43 name='gnome-settings-daemon' ** DEBUG: Updating client: index=43 name='gnome-settings-daemon' ** DEBUG: Updating sink: index=0 name='alsa_output.pci-0000_00_08.0.analog-stereo' description='Built-in Audio Analog Stereo' map='front-left,front-right' -- To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/949296/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
