I glossed over the word "laptops" in the beginning of your e-mail, sorry. systemd (by default) doesn't put idle systems to sleep, but it does put closed laptops to sleep when no desktop power management system is active (e.g. when KDM is running). Just set HandleLidSwitch=ignore in /etc/systemd/logind.conf to turn it off. See `man logind.conf` for more information. -T.C. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
