[Bug 442634] Re: if laptop lid already closed, doesn't detect when it should suspend when mains power removed

 

I can't get the Maverick behavior to work in Oneiric.

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2010-November/msg06088.html

seems to state that earlier mentioned solutions will not work.

I consider this a problem with Oneiric and can't find how to fix it so
the behavior is like reported above.

Title:
  if laptop lid already closed, doesn't detect when it should suspend
  when mains power removed

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  This looks like bugs 66126 or 31967; however both are quite old bugs
  marked as "fix released" a long time ago. So I guess this is a
  regression of one or the other...

  Settings are
  On AC Power, lid-closed should go to Blank Screen.
  On Battery, lid-closed should suspend.

  So on AC power, I close the lid. It goes to blank screen.

  Later, I unplug the power. It should go to suspend, but it doesn't. It
  remains on blank-screen until the lid is opened and the screen woken
  up, then closed again.

  Maybe problem is you're watching for transition events rather than
  having a state machine? After all, no new lid-closed event would have
  happened when the power was removed. So it's looking for the *event*
  "lid closing" rather than the *state* "lid is closed". Surely it
  should go: "Something changed. State is now: battery power, lid
  closed, therefore I need to suspend".

  (for values of "you" that are probably upstream, I guess. :-) )
