My screen has started going into sleep mode if the computer is idle for around ten minutes - sometimes longer, no discernable pattern. The setting is of course set to 'never' in System / Preferences / Power Management
View 3 RepliesI recently came to Debian. As I have an ati card, I tried the proprietary drivers first, but then came back to radeon (open-source). In the process, I think I may have broke my xorg.conf . Sometimes, when the monitor goes into sleep mode, when I came back, the screen remains black (sometimes I see just the cursor).
Here is my xorg.conf
# NOXORGCONFEXISTED: No X.org configuration file existed when this backup was created.
Also, I have lots of backups in my X11 folder, like xorg.conf.fglrx-3, xorg.conf.original-1, or backup.xorg.conf. Is it safe to remove them? What should I do about the main xorg.conf?
Asus u43f wont go into sleep/suspend mode. Either manually from the shut down menu or by closing the lid. the screen will turn off but the various lights do not turn of and hard drive continue to spin.
I found this suggested test with a google search but no fix
sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh
which returned:

Loads of tightly packed horizontal lines. Turning the machine off and restarting makes all ok. It's only on wake up does the problem happen. The laptop is an Acer 1652,with an ATI Mobile Radeon X300 graphics card. Intel Pentium M.

I keep hitting it accidentally and I don't even use a swap, so Ubuntu just stalls with a black screen.
I'm on the computer for 15 min, and then it randomly goes into a sleep mode, and I can't recover it (system lights are on, monitor on, mouse/keyboard fine). I've replaced pulseaudio with alsa, and whenever I go into the screensavers tab to disable sleep mode, the computer does its thing and randomly goes to sleep. This is REALLY frustrating because I leave the computer on for downloads, but when I come to check on them the computer has gone to sleep, and I et corrupted files on my HDD. How to disable sleep from terminal?

Does this means that the laptop does not have Sleep (or is it called hibernate) mode enable? How can I enable it?
This also happens with Debian that this laptop is dual booted with.
Installed Fedora8 from an old DVD.
Two issues:
1. start Firefox, but it goes into sleep mode. no matter reboot machine, etc.
2. after entered a static IP address in network manager, fedora hanged in boot process, halted in "send email" which is one of many processes at boot up.
Used DHCP, can ping to other PC in LAN, but can't go internet.
Linux downloaded new updates and worked perfectly. Next time I started mint, just before the login screen appears display says No Signal and goes in sleep mode. I think that mint downloaded somekind of display driver update wich is not compatible with my driver card. I can't see desktop, I just hear the login sound and that's all. What should I do? I'm new with linux.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using Ubuntu 10.10 on an IBM ThinkPad t43. I have a 9 volt battery that I use only occasionally. Usually I use the AC connection and when I'm finished working I leave the laptop in "sleep" mode. (Not always, but often.) When using the AC is it okay to leave the battery in the computer or is it better to remove it? Some swear it shortens the battery's life to leave it installed when not in use. Others swear--with equal fervor--that the newer ion batteries know when they are fully charged and don't have to be removed. Which is true? It's inconvenient to keep taking the battery in and out, but if it's necessary to prolong it's life I guess it's worth it. Some clarity good because, as I said, you can find equally impassioned arguments for both sides of this issue.
View 6 Replies View Relatedafter totem is done playing a movie from my external harddrive ( usb 2.0 750 gb Western Digital HDD) the computer screen will go blank but the computer will not suspend or hibernate. I have gnome-power-manager to go to suspend after 30 min of inactivity. I will usually fall asleep during the movie and the laptop will remain on. I will wake up to find the laptop on for the whole night and that it didn't go to sleep or suspend power after the movie stopped. Note ** I have already tried reinstalling gnome-power-manager & totem ... Also have turned on and off Dbus plugin, and totem is not set to always on top.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried ubuntu, kubuntu, fedora and linux mint. all 64 bit versions. I've also tried to suspend through applications like acpitool. But nothing works. When I click on Suspend, the screen goes blank but the computer is still running. The wireless network adaptor gets disabled for a second and then comes back on. All I have to do is press a key and I get the unlock screen prompt. Basically, suspend works like 'Lock Screen'. I have a HP Pavillion laptop. Core 2 Duo @ 2 GHz and 4 GB RAM.
