Public bug reported:
After upgrading to 14.04, my Dell Dimension E521 sleeps at the GDM login
window after a short amount of time. But I have used the System Settings
-> Power Management -> Energy Saving panel to tell it never to Suspend
Session. I have Screen Energy Saving set to 10 minutes. I have tried
many different settings based on recommendations found on the web, but
no matter what, the system sleeps at the GDM login window after a short
amount of time.
I'm using Kubuntu, running KDE, not that horrible Ubuntu interface for
tablet users.
This sleep behavior causes two problems:
1) The system goes to sleep and never wakes up, but that is the subject
of a different bug.
2) If the system reboots for any reason, it then promptly goes to sleep,
which means that it is essentially down, and then I cannot access it
remotely. And I access it remotely quite often. I rely on my system
being up and accessible, and this bug prevents me from using the system
after it reboots. For example, if the power goes out at my house (which
it does). I have the BIOS set to reboot after power loss, but then the
system goes to sleep.
So, how do I tell my system NOT to go to sleep while waiting for login
at the GDM window? Why do the Power Management settings appear to do
nothing at the GDM window? How do I configure the GDM window sleep
behavior?
