Bug ID: 391782 Summary: powerdevil defaults to do nothing when closing laptop lid Product: Powerdevil Version: 5.12.3 Platform: Debian unstable OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: jm.ouwerk...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Latest powerdevil appears to default to doing nothing when closing the laptop lid. In terms of usability this is a somewhat poor default. I do not know whether it is relevant, but I start plasma + kwin using `startplasmacompositor`, i.e. running a Wayland setup. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install your plasma system 2. Login on a tty & run `startplasmacompositor` 3. Close laptop lid. 4. Notice nothing happens. 5. Log off/kill your plasma session 6. Close laptop lid. 7. Notice logind takes care of business as expected. 8. Run another Plasma session (`startplasmacompositor` again) 9. Take a closer look at power settings in system settings 10. Notice "Button events handling" is not checked, notice the greyed out option for configuring laptop lid handling is marked as "do nothing" 11. Manually configure closing the laptop lid to suspend to RAM. 12. Apply settings. 13. Observe things work as expected, again, from within Plasma.
