[Bug 700509] New: Do not suspend (to ram or disk) when shutdown is imminent
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=700509 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=700509#c0 Summary: Do not suspend (to ram or disk) when shutdown is imminent Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.4 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Usability AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas_nordal_4@hotmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1 Soon after telling the computer to shut down, a mobile user may want to close the laptop lid. This should not delay the shutdown till the next time the user wants to use the computer. In my opinion, a user that wants to shut down does not want to suspend in the process, and doing so is wasteful anyway. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Turn off the computer via the menu in KDE 2. Close the lid promptly Actual Results: The computer is in suspend to ram, using power. It will turn itself off next time someone tries to use it. This behavior is not useful, thus the power is wasted. Expected Results: The computer should be off. Although this obviously is a usability problem, maybe it should be addressed at a lower level. Considering that suspending can only delay, not stop the shutdown, suspending in the shutdown process is never useful anyway. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

this will trigger a suspend even if shutdown is running.
Then, the (obvious) solution is disabling the triggering of suspend before running shutdown. Call it misusage, but IMHO expecting the user to wait for the computer to turn off is unrealistic. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
