I have always substituted sudo pm-suspend for the shutdown command. I couple that with irblaster commands to shut off the tv in /etc/pm/sleep.d. My MCEUSB remote then wakes the computer with the press of the power button and I issue an irblaster command that turns on the TV. The behavior was working great until this patch unnecessarily removed the standard mythtv menu options.
If one were uncomfortable having a blank field signify default shutdown behavior, a checkbox that said "Use Custom Command" could bring back the missing fields. Better yet, in the name of transparency, just put the actual default commands into the entry boxes and let people see what is happening. If you were worried that somebody would accidentally erase the command, you could add a button "Restore default" for each line. I think patches that obfuscate system functions and reduce flexibility are wrong headed. Especially with the diversity of hardware and usage situations that exist in the community. -- Add Suspend Option to Menu under General Setup Program Exit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/623332 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
