Amazing now a laptop can shut down when closed. I had always wondered how that security hole would be closed.
I am confused as to what you mean by "security hole" when referring to the laptop closing.
Simple remaining logged in when the laptop is closed so that anyone who opened the laptop would automatically be able to access your system without logging in.
In my experience, Suse has always asked for a password when you do this. If you disable that feature its your problem.
Yeah, even Mandrake 6 did this on my laptop when I closed the lid. (Of course, back then it took a lot of hand-coding to ensure the lid-closing event was noticed.)
The control for locking the screen is still there, but let's not loose sight of the original thread: triggering hibernation on a lid-close event, which no longer works in KDE. -- JAY VOLLMER JVOLLMER@VISI.COM TEXT REFS DOUBLEPLUSUNGOOD SELFTHINK VERGING CRIMETHINK - IGNORE FULLWISE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
