[Bug 788415] Re: Can't disable suspend button
I have two desktop systems that are not intended to ever go into sleep
mode. The keyboards have the sleep key right near the escape key, and
even no the screen, suspend and hibernate are too close to logout and
lock screen, without and any confirmation, and typically about twenty
minutes of work to recover. I think I toasted a raid device out of
this. working on recovery.

Title:
Can't disable suspend button
Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
gnome-power-manager does not allow you to set the suspend button to
"Do Nothing" or "Ask Me". It does have these options for the power
button which is generally harder to hit by accident.
This is a bug, not a feature request as argued in #712650. System
is behaving in a non-consensual manner which can endanger the
integrity of the system. Suspend button on Dynex DX-WKBD is
located on corner of keyboard and very easy to bump. It was
possible to disable this key in previous ubuntu/debian releases;
indeed since a parrot used to share the workstation, it was necessary
to disable all particularly destructive keys like suspend and window
close. Also related to expired bug #492030.
