** Description changed:
When I close the lid of my laptop, X "hangs" when I reopen it. The
desktop is visable, but I cannot move the mouse-pointer or use the
keyboard.
- While searching though the known bugs in LP, I came across #138256.
- Here's what I did:
+ While searching though the known bugs in LP, I came across #138256. I
+ followed the instructions there, but noticed that when "Automatic
+ Login" is enabled, the issue still appears. Disabling "Automatic Login"
+ combined with the instructions in #138256 resolves the issue.
- I added `Option "ForceEnablePipeA" "true"` in xorg.conf (as destribed in
- #138256). Then I did a "Control-Alt-Backspace", entered the requested
- credentials, closed the lid, reopened lid. The issue was gone, and I was
- able to work in X again.
-
- After that, I rebooted, waited until the desktop appeared (I have
- autologin enabled), closed the lid, reopened lid. Surprisingly X hang
- again.
-
- So my workaround for now is:
+ So the workaround is:
* Add `Option "ForceEnablePipeA" "true"` in xorg.conf (as destribed in
#138256)
- * Restart computer, and wait for desktop to appear
- * "Control-Alt-Backspace"
- * Enter credentials
+ * Restart computer
+ If you have enabled "Automatic Login" (System -> Admin -> Login Window ->
Security), follow these steps as well:
+ * "Control-Alt-Backspace"
+ * Enter credentials
