There are two wiki pages which I've found very useful to understand the big picture of pm-utils and power management inners on any modern linux distribution: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm-utils http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Pm-utils Beyond that, YMMV. It will depend on how are you calling/triggering the events (this is highly dependable on your DE, if there's any in place). To see what's going on you can make two things: 1/ Running pm-utils from command line 2/ Reading the log (/var/log/suspend.log) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
