I took the time to write the above blurb because was tired of having the graphics system unresponsive/unavailable after opening the lid.
However, as part of writing the above, I unchecked & rechecked all related settings in Power Options, and now when I test again for multiple seconds at a time, laptop network remains connected to remote sessions ... asks for a password to unlock. Previuously it would drop the network and/or blacken the GUI (could shift to alt terminal sessions), and that was relatively unacceptable (relatively, for it's taken me months to add to a bug report). I can only guess now that the issue is hopefully since been patched, but the old settings/configs were still a problem, so when unconfiguring & reconfiguring, the bad bits are reset. --shrug-- tested a few times now, and each time, after lifting the lid, the screen is still black, and wifi is working, so I move the mouse, nothing happens, and after about 6-10 seconds, I move the mouse again and get the unlock screen prompt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1001908 Title: Login screen doesn't always appear To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/1001908/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
