I tried this
 systemctl mask sleep.target suspend.target hibernate.target
hybrid-sleep.target


Still no go - the Xorg.0.log still is showing pause.

How do I get X not to pause - I dont want the X screen to logout when I do
control-ALt-F3 and then control-F1 to go back???
I tried the setting all these in logind.conf

[Login]
#NAutoVTs=6
#ReserveVT=6
#KillUserProcesses=no
#KillOnlyUsers=
#KillExcludeUsers=root
#InhibitDelayMaxSec=5
HandlePowerKey=ignore
HandleSuspendKey=ignore
HandleHibernateKey=ignore
HandleLidSwitch=ignore
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=ignore
HandleLidSwitchDocked=ignore

rebooted and still nothing.
