Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
I have a Dell Inspiron 4100 laptop running Ubuntu Edgy (latest updates as of 12/29/06). No matter what setting I chose for closing the lid (I tried blank screen and nothing), I get logged off Gnome and come back to gdm when I open the lid. When I open it, something is happening on the screen, i.e. maybe gdm gets started right then and there. But the logging off happens right when you close the lid, because I noticed that my programs stop to run immediately. /var/log/messages shows: Dec 28 20:32:34 localhost kernel: [17255360.224000] video bus notify Dec 28 20:32:34 localhost gnome-power-manager: (squisher) Doing nothing because the lid has been closed on ac power Dec 28 20:32:40 localhost gconfd (squisher-15746): Received signal 15, shutting down cleanly Dec 28 20:32:40 localhost gconfd (squisher-15746): Exiting I've seen various other bug reports about hibernate not working correctly etc - these may very well be related, but I haven't seen any bug report about the getting logged off problem. Here is another report of this bug in the ubuntu forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=304051 Please contact me if any debugging is needed, I'd like to get this back to normal, since it's very annoying (specially when someone expects to keep a program running and closes the lid). ** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Closing lid throws you out of Gnome, regardless of g-p-m settings https://launchpad.net/bugs/77436 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
