[Bug 1769061] Re: Screen lock + Laptop lid close forces suspend
To the previous comment: I'm a long-time user of many Dell laptops, and I can confirm that Dell does NOT disconnect the display when it closes. Whether running Windows, you can clearly see the glow of the monitor still on, when closed, if configured to stay on. (Which is also proof that it is completely possible to close the lid, and neither lock nor turn off, if that's what you want.) Between work and home, I run 6 physical installations of Xubuntu 18.04.3, 18.04.4, and 16.04.something. And going back as far as I can remember, to at least 12.04, this has been an ongoing bug. When I want to use my laptop "docked" (e.g. either physically docked or just all wired up by itself), I have to leave the lid ajar, to prevent it from going to sleep. Really annoying. But, I love me some XFCE so whaddayagonado. I really whish they'd just fix this already. (I've thought about taking it on myself but don't know C or GTK+ well enough, so kind of have to rely on the generosity, expertise, focus, and priorities of other...) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769061 Title: Screen lock + Laptop lid close forces suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1769061/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For me Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F7 enables the screen but shows a message "This session is locked", which never goes away. But Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F8 allows to unlock normally. This is a workaround #1. This happens on a Dell laptop (7490, built-in Intel Graphics). Maybe Dell physically disconnects the screen when lid is closed. Workaround #2: Default Lid Close action in xfce Power Manager is "Lock". If I change it to "Suspend", the problem goes away. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769061 Title: Screen lock + Laptop lid close forces suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1769061/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The bug is still in xubuntu 19.10 eoan. I made a clear install with a new sudoer account.

[Bug 1769061] Re: Screen lock + Laptop lid close forces suspend
Hi I found a work-around which was to set close lid to do nothing. Can't remember how I did it now. But this was months ago and couldn't continue without doing something. Now I just lock the screen with ctrl-alt-l and close the lid. Maybe someone else who still has the issue could help.

Thanks for your bug report. Does the system suspend when closing the lid on a fresh boot (when the login screen is displayed for the first time)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769061 Title: Screen lock + Laptop lid close forces suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1769061/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
