[Bug 1766683] Re: Kubuntu 18.04beta: No hibernation when closing lid

[Nicolas]

** Description changed:

- I installed Kubuntu 18.04beta on a Thinkpad x230 and upgraded all packages.
- Hibernation works fine when triggered manually, but closing the lid doesn't get the laptop to hibernate.
  
+ On a fresh Kubuntu 18.04beta with all pachages upgraded,
+ hibernation works fine when triggered manually, but closing the lid doesn't get the laptop to hibernate.
  
- Adding the following lines to ~/.config/powermanagementprofilesrc leads to the desired behaviour:
+ Upstream bug: "powerdevil defaults to do nothing when closing laptop
+ lid" (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=391782)
+ 
+ The importance of this issue should be raised, since users might damage
+ their laptops by carrying them without realizing they're not suspended,
+ as reported here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349750
+ 
+ Adding the following lines to ~/.config/powermanagementprofilesrc leads
+ to the desired behaviour:
