I have an old laptop that I use as a home server, so it sits in the corner closed most of the time. Something changed with the last set of updates I applied so now if I reboot, it suspends in the middle of the boot process, and will not continue until I open the laptop, at which point it will continue. Is anyone else seeing this? Is there a new setting somewhere that I can change to get it to boot with the lid closed?
Thanks Mike

Not sure if this will fix it, but worth a try....
Look in the file /etc/systemd/logind.conf and check to make sure that
HandleLidSwitch=ignore
is set.

It works. Thinkpad R52, Fedora 23.

Thanks! That seems to have fixed it. Reading up on the setting, I'm now wondering why it was working the way I wanted before :/ Woogie
