Hi,
Seems like I've found a workaround for the suspend problems I had (passing acpi_sleep=s3_bios to grub), but now I have two problems that seem plasma-netbook related.
1 - Clicking the screen lock icon or using the shortcut keys does absolutely nothing. I've found that it works after I run "qdbus org.kde.krunner /ScreenSaver Lock" in a konsole. Should I add krunner to the autostart applications, or install the kded module from this blog post (http://randomguy3.wordpress.com/2011...k-interface/)? That post mentions this is supposed to be fixed for kde4.8, but seems like something is missing here?
2 - Using the hibernate function key does absolutely nothing, no feedback at all; selecting "suspend to disk" in the shutdown menu only shows a message from kde power management system saying the screen has been locked, and the screen stays unlocked (ifI haven't ran the qdbus line above) and the laptop doesn't hibernate. "sudo pm-hibernate" works without any problem.
Any ideas on what to do to track this down?
Edit: I just found out that disabled hibernation isn't a bug, but a feature (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...es/+bug/812394). Huge WTF. Anyway, editing /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla and changing ResultActive=yes
under [Disable hibernate by default] re-enables hibernate.
I'd put this under the same category of disabling ctrl-alt-backspace. Huge WTF.
So now the remaining issue is screen lock not working until krunner is launched.
