How can this be accomplished?
Can't find much via SO or the net.
Found plenty on the suspend/etc. Curious as to how to do this.
Thanks.

Shut off suspend and hibernate modes. It depends on which power manager GUI you have. In XFCE's Power Manager:
General tab: Set "Laptop Lid" to "Switch off display" for both "On battery" and "Plugged in".
System tab: Set "System sleep mode" to "Suspend" and run the sliders all the way to the left (for "Never") for both "On battery" and "Plugged in"
I think that'd do it. All you're doing at that point is blanking the screen when the lid is closed. You've disabled all the suspend/hibernate stuff.
Remember to re-enable that stuff when you want to go back to normal. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Memory is the second thing to go, but I can't remember the first! - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
