[Bug 1286430] Re: Suspend option when lid closed "greyed out" in Power Settings
Closing this ancient bug (which I filed) since it's against a long-since EOL version, and I haven't seen this problem in any recent versions. ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1286430 Title: Suspend option when lid closed "greyed out" in Power Settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/1286430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I added the workaround referenced by https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power- manager/+bug/1286430/comments/8 to the bug description at the top. ** Description changed: + Workaround + == + + Based on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power- + manager/+bug/1286430/comments/8. + + 1.

In power options for When the lid is closed no option is given except for Do Nothing. Suspend is there, but unselectable. Suspend should be a selectable option on laptop computers. As expected, closing laptop lid merely locks the screen. However, since Suspend cannot be selected, the option to suspend upon lid closing is unavailable. Expected: Suspend option selectable.

I'm seeing this as well on an Acer Aspire 5733. In fact on installation of the beta gnome-power-manager was not installed.
