[Bug 416236] Re: [Regression] No do nothing for laptop lid closed action

2011-02-25 Thread Vish
This issue is fixed in gnome 3.0 .

The option wont be available in the GUI, but If you have more than one active 
screen connected to the machine, then we’re going to just disable the internal 
screen and not suspend

Does this mean that I have to buy an additional Monitor to prevent

Not available in the GUI implies, at least to me, that there will be
a GConf (GSettings?) key for it, as there is now.

The bug reported here is about the lid close blanking even the external screen. 
Which is fixed as per gpm author.
The GUI option will not be exposed, but the option will be available in the 
gconf/dconf

@Mechanical snail : This is not the bug you are looking for, If you are
interested in discussing the change kindly do so in upstream bugzilla
with the upstream authors . Changing the bug status here is not going to
fix it.

- Bug 603570 - Do Nothing option for laptop lid close is now missing ;
- Bug 605961 - gnome-power-preferences when laptop lid is closed action

- Bug 638865 - [REGRESSION] gnome-power-manager unconditionally suspends when

I propose this bug for the one hundred paper cut project, it's a really

 Bug description:
  In Power Management Preferences, I noticed that there is no longer a
  Do Nothing option for When laptop lid is closed. This is very
  inconvenient since I like to keep the lid closed and use an external
  monitor. Obviously suspend, hibernate, and shutdown are bad.
  Blank screen blanks BOTH screens, not just the laptop screen.

  I seem to recall a Do Nothing option in earlier versions. Either
  that or the Blank screen option only blanked the laptop internal
  screen.

Actually the bug is in the interface, not in the script. So the good 
workaround is to launch this command:
# gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac 
nothing
Which correctly sets the closing action to Do nothing. After this is set you 
will see Do nothing in the configuration applet if you re-open it.

2010-06-29 Thread papaprinny
In the course of evaluating an OS to use for a home server on my newly
acquired laptop, which I had planned to control using an external
monitor and KVM, I ran into this embarrassingly glaring issue. It is
obvious to me that Canonical is not interested in supporting major,
basic functionality and instead pushes aside enormous bugs if they're
not on their roadmap. This is absurd, and I am not interested in
enduring Canonical's pursuit of pretty GUIs and lobotomized
functionality. I will go with an OS that provides functionality that
anyone could reasonably expect from an OS released within the past ten
years.

[Bug 416236] Re: [Regression] No do nothing for laptop lid closed action

2010-06-24 Thread Pablo180
Getting fed up with having to go into the configuration editor and
change the option to 'Do Nothing' every time I wanted to use my laptop
with another monitor I took a chance and used the 'Blank Screen' option
in the power preferences instead, and this seems to work OK now in Lucid
and does the same thing as 'Do Nothing' does.

I am not sure whether this is because I am on battery power (never tried
that on Karmic) but selecting the blank screen initially blanks both
screens, and then the external monitor comes back on after a few
seconds. Sometimes I have to click the switch monitor key on the laptop
to select external monitor, but it still works.

So the problem appears to be resolved, for me anyway. But I still think
it is a silly problem that should never have happened, why remove 'Do
Nothing' if what I presume was meant to replace it 'Blank Screen',
wasn't working correctly initially?

It's simple, but incredibly frustrating bugs like this that get ignored
for 10+ months (as of now) that make it incredibly difficult to get non-
linux users using ubuntu as their main desktop.  Most users are not
comfortable with gconf-editor, and aren't going to know what to google
for to find this bug to figure out the workaround.  We're talking about
adding an item into a dropdown menu that was removed in an earlier
release, lets get this fixed and be done with it.

I am confirming it's still missing on lucid.

This is highly annoying.  Using Ubuntu on a laptop connected to a TV
means that the lid has to stay open if the user doesn't know to use
gedit to modify the power settings.  Not exactly ideal for watching
videos off a laptop, which I'm sure a lot of users do.

[Bug 416236] Re: [Regression] No do nothing for laptop lid closed action

2010-04-17 Thread AJerman
Adding myself to the list of people who would like to see this. I'm
running 10.04 beta on my MacBook that has a broken screen. I'm running
an external 37 monitor on it, and I'd like to be able to keep the lid
closed for a few reasons. One, it's not necessary to be open halfway all
the time since the laptop screen is broken. Two, even if it wasn't
broken, I'm using a 37 screen, I don't need another 13. Three, and
this is the important one, if I can keep it closed, I can reboot and the
MacBook's boot screen will show on the external monitor only. Since I
have to keep it open, the only way to see the startup screen is to close
the lid when I reboot, and open it again as soon as I hear the startup
sound.

I've used the work around for now, and honestly, it wouldn't be that big
of a hassle if I had to do that every time I installed, but this is an
option that would be nice to have.

[Bug 416236] Re: [Regression] No do nothing for laptop lid closed action

2010-03-04 Thread Pablo180
This affects me too and is really annoying. Having to keep my laptop lid
open is a serious inconvenience for anyone using an external monitor. I
can't understand logically why anyone would want to remove the 'Do
Nothing' option, there was a reason for it, and that reason hasn't gone
away. The Blank Screen option blanks both screens and sometimes it isn't
possible to un-blank them without a restart.

This is starting to annoy me with Ubuntu, it seems that development is
so concerned with moving on apace that they are no longer getting the
basics right, each new release either breaks things that worked
previously, or removes useful functions.

I did a fresh install of Karmic on my Dell Latitude and this problem
came up. I had a similar problem with my HP netbook. I had previously
done an upgrade install of Karmic and the Do Nothing option wasn't
removed from Power Management. It took me awhile to figure out why my
external monitor wasn't working right. The command Lars gave fixed it:

gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac
nothing

No restart was necessary, and Do Nothing is now an option in Power
Management. I can close the laptop lid and the external monitor stays
on.

For me, the do nothing was available in the power management dialog in 
karmic. 
Now on a fresh install of Lucid alpha 2, it is gone, but it's again available 
and working after setting the GConf value.
I couldn't yet test the behaviour with an external screen with Lucid.

I believe it's fairly useless to keep the blank screen option while
deliberately hiding do nothing in power manager, as most laptops blank
the screen by hardware anyway when the lid is closed.

This alternating problem persists after several reboots. The do
nothing option, which is still active does not seem to work. Instead
closing the lid seems to operate a switch screen function as it might
be handy for presentations but NOT for working with an external screen.

2009-12-07 Thread ixtos
Hello people,

there are definitely unresolved issues here. I also use an external
monitor and would like to close the laptop lid while working solely with
the external monitor. The external monitor has a higher resolution and a
differing aspect ratio compared to the laptop screen. So I had to
uncheck mirror monitors in System/Preferences/Display to have the full
resolution for the external monitor available (see other bug reports
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-
center/+bug/299653 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-
center/+bug/351427).

To do nothing when closing the laptop lid, I used Lars Bengtsson's suggestion:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac 
nothing
gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_battery 
nothing

After restarting the system to be sure everything is started up as necessary I 
get the following behavior:
- (ok) System  Preferences  Power Management  On AC power  When laptop lid 
is closed: do nothing
- (ok) System  Preferences  Power Management  On battery power  When laptop 
lid is closed: do nothing
When I actually close the laptop lid, I got two behaviors so far:
1) I indeed still see something on the external monitor, but back in the coarse 
native resolution of my laptop screen.
OR
2) The external monitor remains in its higher resolution, but all panels, 
windows, and applications are gone as though mirror monitors is switched on.

There seems to be a problem at least in this combination of usage:
+ using external monitor
+ laptop screen switched off to get full resolution at external monitor
+ do nothing if laptop lid is closed

This is, however, the default usage for many users with external
monitors. So I'd encourage to work on this.

2009-12-07 Thread ixtos
Addendum:
When I open the lid again, here is what happens in the cases 1) and 2) 
described above:

1) laptop screen is switched back on in native resolution, external
monitor is switched off (no signal) and has to be re-activated in System
 Preferences  Display  laptop off, external on

2) the laptop screen remains switched off and the external monitor works
fine again in highest resolution

Interesting: behaviors 1) and 2) alternate when I close and open the lid
several times in a row (each time re-activating the external screen
after behavior 1)). The Power Management setting remain unaffected on
do nothing during all this.

2009-12-02 Thread floid
Another 'vote,' to advise that this de-featuring has crept through
related gnome-power-preferences options, not just lid-closing:

Some desktop keyboards feature overly-prominent Suspend buttons.
The Do nothing option has disappeared for suspend button behavior as well.
Sometimes Suspend still does not work and it's helpful to be able to avoid 
foot-shooting until there's time to debug it properly.

It looks like you've bisected this already, but re: the Suspend option,
somehow I have two systems cdromupgrade'd to 9.10, one ('CD-only') still
offering Do Nothing, the other (all updates through December 1, 2009)
not.  I'm not in front of them to check version numbers, but locally
machines with 2.28.1-0ubuntu1 all lack it.


[Suspend trouble is a failure to resume on HP Compaq SR1611NX desktops, using 
the HP A8AE-LE Amberine motherboard with no added hardware for those who 
care.]

This regression affects primarily does take dock the laptop, close the
lid and use an external monitor. But if you have an external keyboard and
mouse, which you need if you close the lid!, then you have a simple
solution: touch the mouse and the blank screen is gone. A regression, but
not that much so.

Hope it helps. Best.

 since I like to keep the lid closed and use an external monitor. Obviously
 suspend, hibernate, and shutdown are bad. Blank screen blanks BOTH

 I seem to recall a Do Nothing option in earlier versions. Either that or

Like Troy I changed the GConf setting, since this is required for 'Do
nothing' since this commit:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/svn-commits-list/2009-July/msg05558.html

with the comment:

/* we only add do nothing in the GUI if the user has explicitly
specified this in GConf */

This means that it is only possible to set 'Do nothing' in GConf not in
the GUI, but it will be shown i GUI.

With command line I did this:

gconftool-2 --type string --set  /apps/gnome-power-

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.

2009-10-14 Thread Troy R.
I accidentally nominated this for fixing in Karmic's release. Oops. I
fuzzed out and thought it was asking me to pick the branch it was
affecting. My apologies.

Anyway, regarding the bug, I agree that this is a regression. This is
functionality that was more or less required for using an external
monitor unless your laptop happens to have a Fn-button function for
turning off the screen. Even on laptops with such a function, it may
send suspend signals to the video hardware, thus putting both the LCD
panel and the VGA out into DPMS suspend or off.

As I use my laptop(s) connected to external monitors and with the lid
mostly closed (cracked open a bit for airflow), this is a serious issue
for me.

Matt and mac, did this appear recently (as in since 2.27.5-0ubuntu1)?
Or did it appear earlier?

 You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to gnome-
 power-manager in ubuntu.

 Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

 Bug description:
 In Power Management Preferences, I noticed that there is no longer a Do 
 Nothing option for When laptop lid is closed. This is very inconvenient 
 since I like to keep the lid closed and use an external monitor. Obviously 
 suspend, hibernate, and shutdown are bad. Blank screen blanks BOTH 
 screens, not just the laptop screen.

 I seem to recall a Do Nothing option in earlier versions. Either that or 
 the Blank screen option only blanked the laptop internal screen.

 Thanks!

I am on 2.27.5-0ubuntu2.

I am not sure what version was in alpha 3, but I didn't notice it in
that version.
