Power management

[Celso Viana]

Hi all,

I set Fedora 38 Workstation's power mode to performance, but if any
user doesn't login the computer hibernates. How do I change this
behavior so that the computer does not go to sleep if there is no user
logged in?

Thanks

I believe you need to set this to disable gdm from suspending:

sudo -u gdm dbus-run-session gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout 0

Ideally you’d drop something in /etc/dconf/.

Check /etc/systemd/sleep.conf
The default settings have it set to sleep as per request from Lenovo 
as I've heard to get better power rating, but totally screwed up my 
machines. I set options to no.

[Sleep]
AllowSuspend=no
AllowHibernation=no
AllowSuspendThenHibernate=no
AllowHybridSleep=no

Lenovo (along with all the big vendors) wants "enterprise" deployments in
cubicle farms where power and cooling limits per seat are being downsized
to fit in more workstations.

If you edit /etc/systemd/sleep.conf the settings may be overwritten
with upgrades.  You can avoid that by putting your local version of
sleep.conf in /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/<name>.conf.
