unsure if that's the issue though could you provide those details - the output of "systemd-inhibit --list" - edit /etc/xdg/autostart/org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power.desktop and change the exec line to look like Exec=/usr/libexec/gsd-power -v log out and back in again (or reboot) and then reproduce this. After a failed attempt attach the full output of 'journalctl -b' to this report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1736820 Title: Laptop doesn't suspend on lid close Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Laptop is Thinkpad T450. On previous releases of Ubuntu I would close the lid to suspend it. 17.10 doesn't suspend on lid close, which has caused my laptop to overheat in my bag a couple of times. I have installed tweak tool and made sure the power section toggle switch is on. But it makes no difference. I have also tried rebooting, flipping the toggle back and forth, and still nothing. Should I see a key change somewhere in dconf-editor once I flip the switch? Does suspend work for others, on the T450?
