I have the same problem, in KDE I changes energy saving settings but when I shut down and close the laptop lid it suspends, which is so stupid thing, because then I leave and instead of shutting down it keeps suspended until I come back or realize, so unconfortable behavior. I don't understand why this is it selected by defect and there's no easy way to change it. I hate that suspend-hibernate stuff. Tonight it was a bigger problem, because I leaved my laptop on copying a lot of stuff, something like 300Gb from one hard drive to another and close the lid -as I said, in KDE I configured it not to suspend ever and it used to work fine- and this morning nothing was copied because it suspended after I went to sleep. I went to energy manager and it tells me it's not active -even it really is- and doesn't let me make any change there, so it's working as if energy saving configuration was off in KDE and then using that standard stupid configuration from login.comf. How should i rewrite that login.conf file? what should I write instead of suspend? I guess I must change this one, but how?
#HandleLidSwitch=suspend
And should I change #LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes to #LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=no?
thanx
