Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
If "Do nothing" is selected for "When laptop lid is closed" and the laptop lid is closed, the external monitor never goes to sleep. If the lid is left open, the external monitor goes to sleep as it should. To reproduce: 1. Set "Do nothing" for "When laptop lid is closed". If it's not listed, see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1319921 2. Set "Put display to sleep when inactive" to 0:01. 3. Disable screensaver if it's enabled. 4. Close the laptop lid. 5. Wait a few minutes. Nothing happens. If however the laptop lid is open, the monitor goes to sleep as it should. ** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/720653 Title: Display fails to sleep if "Do nothing" is selected for when laptop lid is closed -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
