[Bug 410829] Re: Pressing Suspend key turns off display instead of suspending

[Janne Hyötylä]

Hi Scott,

This is not a duplicate of Bug 407491. I tried the fixed version from a
PPA mentioned there and this problem still persists. Moreover, I am
using i386, and as I understood from the other bug, it affects only
amd64.

I updated the bug description, because I found out that Fn-F1 now turns
off the display instead of suspending on both AC and battery.

When I initially installed karmic (between alpha3 and 4), the suspend
button was definitely working as intended for a short time. I don't know
what could have triggered this bug except maybe it happened after I
started gnome-power-preferences for the first time after installation.

** Summary changed:

- Pressing Suspend key while on AC turns off display - not configurable
+ Pressing Suspend key turns off display instead of suspending

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 407491
   [karmic] gnome-power-preferences not storing settings

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
  
  Laptop: Dell Latitude D630.
  
- When pressing the suspend key (Fn-F1) while on AC, only the display gets turned off.
- While on battery, suspend occurs normally.
+ When pressing the suspend key (Fn-F1), only the display gets turned off,
+ instead of suspending the laptop.
  
  In the settings, I have the following:
  When the suspend button is pressed: Suspend.
