Hi Kevin, thanks for giving the hint for the workaround to inhibit systemd trying to take over the lid handling. This is not senseful for Xfce systems, right!
I am on a freshly updated Manjaro system (ArchLinux) here. So this issue has nothing to do with Fedora in particular and should be handled upstream somewhere, either systemd (looks for other power managers already active in the system, maybe…) or desktop handlers should instruct systemd as the backend what to do. That design needs clearly rethinking, IMHO. I've added a comment to the upstream bug. -R. > Just a note here in case any folks run into it before we fix it. > > systemd now by default handles lid button, power button, etc. > > This means that if you have xfce4-power-manager and have it doing > something different from 'suspend' on lid close (I have mine set to > "lock screen"), systemd will suspend for you. > > You can work around this by setting a startup command: > > systemd-inhibit --mode=block --what=handle-lid-switch sleep 1000000 & > > Ideally we would fix this in xfce4-power-manager and it would inhibit > anything that it wants to handle itself.
