Devs, I don't know whether this is something Arch can set or if it is kde that sets the powerdevil suspend default. We need to see if it is possible to disable the 'suspend' after 30 minutes on the first page of the powerdevil settings because many machines (mine included) do not suspend nicely and instead lock up tight. It took a while to find this issue on my x86_64 box, but after setting the default to 'Turn off Screen' instead of suspend, the lockups are gone. When the suspend lockups occurred, my box locked so badly I had to pull the power-cord and drain the residual power by depressing the 'on' button with the cord out before the box would POST again. That's a serious lock.... If possible, we may want to try and disable this default even if it is a kde default because it has some pretty bad implications.... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
