Currently I have two options: (a) invoke APM from an xterm myself. Trouble with this is that I'm logged in when the computer is woken up and I do have multiple users. (b) Set my bios to go to sleep after a couple of hours of inactivity. It looks like I can do this from within KDE as well (I haven't tried this). But this sucks because it means I can't do a long FTP without the computer going to sleep and disconnecting me. I want to be able to log out at night and then select "sleep" from KDM! As a final cheap shot - Windows 2000 does this very nicely. Regards.

I won't use this option if I am not sure that I won't have a filesystem corruption. If all potential dangers are very well tested, then this feature is good.

"Power Control" would not be available in kcontrol until installed explicitely (klaptopdaemon in debian) -- and the neccessary features would not be enabled in kernel because a desktop-pc does not utilize a battery. thus the suspend/hibernate feature would not be there to be enabled.

There are two cases: 1-Suspend to ram: always present on kernel(more or less buggy), but I get it to work. 2-Hibernate to disk: could be included in the kernel and most of times it is. There's also the suspend2 option, which I personally use and like a lot. This latter option isn't normally (and unfortunately) supported on most distros except gentoo(AFAIK). 1st option could always be present, 2nd is optional if the corresponding options are enabled on kernel+hibernate script present. These options works better IHMO with the hibernate scripts. So the hibernate script "could" be a dependence of having the suspend/hibernate options enable.

Allow me to explain. When you hibernate, it shows a progressbar and when it finishes the computer turns itself of. When you turn it on again, a menu displays showing all logged in users and how many programs are running on behalf of each. These programs actually resume running as soon as the system is up again. Click your username, enter your password (if necessary) and your desktop is displayed. Also, if you do not click any username for an extended period of time (I don't know exactly how long) the system assumes the computer was turned back on by accident and hibernates again. I'm not sure how useful the last feature is, but I can imagine there are situations where such behaviour is wanted.

No fancy tricks are required: something like a "SuspendCmd=" and "HibernateCmd=" in kdmrc would already help a lot, see comment #10 (from 1.5 years ago!) AFAIK such options don't exist yet for kdm, but they seem to exist in other login managers (such as gdm). If kdm reacted on closing the laptop's lid by suspending to RAM, that would be the cherry on top...

I use Kubuntu: suspend/hibernate is available on the logout menu, but not on the kdm greeter, before you login. At the login menu, you can only login, shutdown or reboot.

Below is the use case for which I need the suspend/hiberbate features from KDM greater. The computer is shared with many persons: - we don't want to shut it down when user A logout because it is slow when user B switch the computer on - we don't want to suspend to RAM or hiberbate from logout menu since we don't want the user A session to be restored when only the user B wants to use the computer (consumes memory for the unused session of user A) Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kde- baseapps/+bug/267663/comments/24 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2009-10-24T16:46:36+00:00 Oswald Buddenhagen wrote: *** Bug 210583 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kde- baseapps/+bug/267663/comments/26 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2010-04-22T16:27:51+00:00 Oswald Buddenhagen wrote: *** Bug 235073 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kde- baseapps/+bug/267663/comments/27 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2010-12-14T11:09:03+00:00 Octavian Petre wrote: Any updates on this?

I have configured the power settings so that when I press the power button, the tablet suspends. This works great as long as I am logged in. When I log out and then press the power button, the tablet just shuts down. That's not what I want here... Either the power management settings of kdm should be configurable somewhere or it should provide buttons for suspend and hibernate.
