You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Laptop: Dell Latitude D630.

When pressing the suspend key (Fn-F1), only the display gets turned off,
instead of suspending the laptop.

In the settings, I have the following:
When the suspend button is pressed: Suspend.


The suspend key is recognized correctly. Here the xev output:

KeyPress event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x1400001,
    root 0xff, subw 0x0, time 21205448, (100,89), root:(1302,142),
    state 0x0, keycode 213 (keysym 0x1008ffa7, XF86Suspend), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x1400001,
    root 0xff, subw 0x0, time 21205448, (100,89), root:(1302,142),
    state 0x0, keycode 213 (keysym 0x1008ffa7, XF86Suspend), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

Then I looked in gconf, XF86Suspend is only found in this key:
/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/sleep
so this should be correct.

Output of
$ gnome-power-manager --verbose | tee gpm.debug.log.txt
attached.

You can see keycode 213 (XF86Suspend) being "grabbed" during
initialisation (first few rows).

I pressed the button at time 18:24:00, nothing was generated in the log
as you can see.

Compared to that, I pressed the power button at 18:25:00, selected
suspend from the menu, and then resumed at 18:25:20.

So looks to me that the suspend key is intercepted before GPM gets it
(?).
