Title:
No effect on Suspend and Hibernate buttons in power button shutdown
dialog
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
On Unity Desktop, in the popup dialog that appears when the ACPI power
button is pressed, the buttons to "suspend" and "hibernate" are non
functional (see screenshot "screenshot of dialog in question").
Detailed info:
Usually, when the ACPI power button on a laptop is pressed, the ACPI-
daemon handles this event and issues a shutdown. However this is not
the case when certain GUI's are running (the acpi shutdown handler
explicitly checks for the presence of a gnome-settings-daemon process,
among others.)
When a user is running the Unity desktop, the process gnome-settings-
daemon is running, and shows up a "popup".
(see screenshot "screenshot of dialog in question")
This popup asks the user whether he wants to
- Suspend
- Restart
- Cancel
- Shutdown
and if the hibernate function has been enabled according to
http://askubuntu.com/questions/94754/how-to-enable-hibernation
also
- Hibernate
if no action is taken, the dialog executes selects the "Shutdown"
feature after 60 seconds without user interaction.
Of these buttons only "Restart", "Shutdown" and "Cancel" have the
intended effect,
"Shutdown" invokes a shutdown of the system
"Cancel" simply closes the dialog.
"Restart" causes a system restart
However "Suspend" and "Hibernate" have the same effect as "Cancel".
the dialog closes, but the system keeps running.
(see sreenshot in attachment "screenshot of dialog in question")
This bug only affects the Unity desktop.
For example, the corresponding dialog in the ubuntustudio desktop
works as expected.
Also if "Suspend" or "Hibernate" are selected manually in the power
menu from the Unity desktop, they ALSO work as expected. (see
screenshot in attachment "on this menu everything works")
