This works when logged in, but not on the lock screen. Funnily enough, when I close the lid, it does suspend! However, due to repetitive opening/closing of the lid, the hinges are now damaged so it is no longer an option to open/close the lid. This is a stationary laptop so we just leave it open. Although this laptop is aging, it runs linux just fine. When do we need this behavior? During the evening, we leave the laptop on because you don't know whether you will use it shortly again or not. But when you're ready to go to sleep, the screen is already locked, and just pressing the power button is the only energy left to put the system to sleep ;) In any case, it's the most sensible action to take. Logging in, confronts you with new emails, new messages, etc, new stimuli you don't want when you want to finish the day. I don't know if there is a technical difference, but if the powerbutton is difficult to "grab" on the lockscreen, maybe support the dedicated suspend key? thanks matthias -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
