Doing a shutdown instead of suspend shows a message like attached file, that some application inhibits the shutdown.
So maybe the same for suspend? So this should be notified to the user. What application is inhibiting the shutdown in this case, has this request been logged somewhere? ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2013-11-29 22:03:33.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/1253624/+attachment/3920253/+files/Screenshot%20from%202013-11-29%2022%3A03%3A33.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1253624 Title: Nothing happens when I do suspend, reboot to fix Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When I manually do suspend from the top bar, nothing happens.
