[Bug 880331] Re: Can no longer shutdown when laptop lid closes

2011-12-05 Thread Gilles Tournier
I agree. But my experience tells me that a kernel crash upon sleep or hibernate is a very difficult bug to troubleshoot. Most of the time, these bugs arise only on a specific hardware or BIOS or ACPI design or other unknown things. In my case, I really like to have to only close the lid when

Thank you David for your solution. It does work perfectly. But...I still think this is an issue and not a simplification. Why would a lambda user be forced to go through dconf-editor (which they probably don't know anything about) in order to have the laptop shutdown when they close the lid

Hello James, Thank you for the workaround you found. I confirm that this actually worked for me too and that it did solve the problem ! The settings are being remembered across reboots when the proper keyboard is selected at the GDM greeting (and this is only needed once). I do agree with you

I have tried what you just described, but it does not work for me...First off, I never selected the option choose keymap for every window and the system-wide option was always available and selected. Still, I cannot get rid of the unwanted keymap, which will always reappear after reboot. Damn!!

It sounds to me that the installer package is doing weird things and perhaps adding unwanted keyboard maps as a default...then this layout becomes a system-wide default that cannot be removed or changed! At least, I experienced the same problem as your Natty server installation but with Natty

Ok...but do you have two keyboard layouts to choose from or only one? Does the indicator applet show in the tray accordingly? What keyboard did you choose during Natty first installation? Is it the same one as the layout you use now or did you add an additional keyboard layout afterward? It

Furthermore, I don't see why the mecanism for disabling the indicator from showing in the tray would not work or would not be implemented (as stated in other threads about this indicator): in my opinion, the code for handling the gconf key

What do you mean when you say your Natty Desktop is not affected? Have you done the same keyboard layout configuration as you described with the german kb map and everything behaves normally both with Xserver and the console (and also it keeps the configuration across reboots) ? -- You received

I have tried your suggestion to reconfigure console-data, but it does not change the problem. Furthermore, the behavior after reconfiguring console-data is the same as reported in the bug description: the settings are NOT remembered across reboots and I always end up with the wrong keyboard in
