Laptop do not suspend after lid is closed

rawbit · 2024-01-31 14:00:33

Dear Forum,

after I installed KDE and uninstall it again, my laptop does not suspend after I closed my the lid.

systemctl suspend is working as expected.

Can you help?

Thank you!

Can you post back:

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -lv

...as well as xfce4-power-manager debug logs?

xfce4-power-manager -q && xfce4-power-manager --no-daemon --debug

...attempt a lid close and post back the output in the terminal.

So xfce4-power-manager recognizes the lid and doesn't have any active inhibitors. It uses logind for lid and suspend actions. What is the content of /etc/systemd/logind.conf?

Also, did you uninstall all kde components that you installed and can you confirm that there are no kde processes still running?

rawbit · 2024-02-01 18:25:59

Hi, I will check again KDE for remaining KDE components and process.
I used debfoster, tasksel to de-install KDE.

Further I looked for every KDE and Plasma package.
I'm not sure if I can find KDE processes, but I try to find it out.

After de-installing the polkit packages from KDE remained, I purge them manually and installed the related gnome stuff.

/xfce4-power-manager/logind-handle-lid-switch true

You've set up xfce4-power-manager to pass on lid switch actions to logind.

HandleLidSwitch=suspend
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=suspend

You've told logind to suspend on lid switch. Interesting that it doesn't work given that systemctl suspend does (but this would be a systemd/logind issue).

What if you revert back to allowing xfce4-power-manager to manage the lid action?

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/logind-handle-lid-switch -s false

...does it work then?

As for kde processes, I meant:

ps -ef | grep kde

rawbit · 2024-02-02 06:51:52

Hi,

thank you again!

ps -ef | grep kde

root 86 2 0 07:32 ? 00:00:00 [kdevtmpfs]

I reworked the logind.conf to check, if it works, but it did not.

How can I check, if the OS suspend or not in the logs?

If I do systemctl suspend, my laptop power lamp flashes and I have to press the power key to come back to Xfce4.
If closing the lid, my laptopscreen is black and after opening the lid I have to login via lightdm.

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/logind-handle-lid-switch -s false I tried already but does not work.
I will change the logind.conf and deactivate the settings with a #.
