Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Bug reporting is mostly about finding & fixing problems thus preventing future users from hitting the same bug. I suspect a Support site would be more appropriate, eg. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu. You can also find help with your problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-support/709 I can imagine many users using an external monitor and expecting their system to continue operation as they watch movie on external monitor, or work using external/dock keyboard, and being annoyed if their system suspended on lid closure. I personally see your issue as a support one, as not everyone will want the lid closure to suspend laptop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909612 Title: Closing laptop lid doesn't suspend with external monitor plugged in To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1909612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
