I have investigated further, and it seems like all my settings in gnome- power-preferences are ignored when I boot my computer on battery power.
If I put my computer in suspend mode and resume it, everything seems to start working. My display turns off when I close the lid, and further more, my monitor dims after a short period of no use, which is another issue I have (Does anyone know a bug number for this?). Does anyone have similar issues? -- Closing laptop lid doesn't cause the screen to go blank https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/449188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
