I am running Xubuntu 14.04 and have this issue, though I'm more concerned with the fact that my computer goes to sleep after a period of inactivity despite having both A/C and battery set to "Never" in the Power Manager. The workaround I use is a script that I added to the Application Autostart list:
xset s off xset dpms 0 0 0 xset -dpms s off I realize there is a bit of redundancy in using those three commands but I have tried different combinations and found using all three to be the only successful method. An interesting thing to note is that everytime I update Xubuntu base I have to remove the command from the Autostart list and then add it again (unchecking and then checking the box does not work for me). Hope this helps, Jeremy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1222021 Title: [SRU] xfce4-power-manager does not inhibit systemd from handling buttons and lid events To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1222021/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
