What happens if a machine is booted with the lid closed (e.g. via WoL or a timer)? Will the machine go again to suspend immediately?
If the lid is closed and the machine is not docked (or docking is not detected), then yes the machine is directly suspended again.[...]
That's a very wrong assumption. An obvious counter case is to use a laptop as a server.
It may be a counter case, but not a very _common_ case.
It doesn't matter at all how common it is. We can't enforce such policy (preventing login for the known working cases) to a fundamental service like logind. For example, we may enhance logind to allow login for only limited letters. It'd speed up the boot time in 2ns. Wonderful! Unfortunately, a user id like jengelh can't login properly any longer, but such an id isn't very common, so no big problem. OK, OK, we should provide an easy workaround in addition. You can disable this limit easily by putting $HOME/.let_me_in file. It's trivial, isn't it? :) Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
