Hide Suspend and hibernate options

Hi there,

I'm running Peppermint55 and the suspend option was about to break my hard disk. When selected, it turns off my computer and instantly back on.
I'm not really looking to make it work as I don't usually use suspend.. I'm just trying now to remove it from the power off menu so that I don't choose it again by mistake!

I tried suggestions using xfconf but nothing seems to work.

# xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -np '/shutdown/ShowSuspend' -t 'bool' -s 'false'
nor
# xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /shutdown/ShowSuspend --create --set false --type bool

# xfconf-query -V
.. 4.10.0

Any idea how to remove the suspend from the power off menu?

Re: Hide Suspend and hibernate options

xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /shutdown/ShowSuspend --create --set false --type bool 

...works for me with 4.10. You can double-check its value by running:

xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /shutdown/ShowSuspend 

...to ensure that it is set to false.

What exactly are you calling the "power off menu"? The one from the Action buttons plugin or the Xfce applications menu plugin?

-----

Is xfce4-session your session manager:

ps -ef | grep session

Hi

Here is the output of the commands

ali@ali-Home-PC ~/.config/xfce4 $ xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /shutdown/ShowSuspend
Property "/shutdown/ShowSuspend" does not exist on channel "xfce4-session".

In the main menu (the one that looks like windows start menu) there is a "Logout" option that has several choices
- Shutdown
- Reboot
- Suspend
- Hibernate

You're not using xfce4-session, but rather LXDE's session manager (lxsession). I'm not at all familiar with lxsession and its capabilities and it is not a component of Xfce. It would probably be best to ask at some LXDE forums for a solution.
