NoSleep going to sleep on battery after 10 minutes of lid closed #48

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Activate in Preferences the NoSleep for Battery
2. After Lid closes, it doesn't go to sleep.
3. However, after 10 minutes aproximately, it does go to sleep and the wifi is 
dead.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The machine shouldn't go to sleep after 10 minutes or disable the WIFI

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
(if you don't know how to get a version number, enter "kextstat|grep -i
nosleep" in Terminal.app, without quotes)
I'm using 1.3.1 of NoSleep and Mountain Lion on a Retina MacBook

Please provide any additional information below.

The output of sudo dmesg is attached

Thanks and regards

Hi,

Check the system preferences for Enargy Saving settings, are they all disabled?

Are you using Insomnia together with NoSleep? Does it make sense?

Thanks for the feedback and dmesg log,

I had insomnia installed, but as it didn't work well with AC power and with 
battery, I changed to NoSleep. I have insomnia installed but I haven't been 
using it yet though.

In the Settings, they're not all in disabled. They are in 15 minutes to dim the 
display. But I want that to keep this like this as I sometimes leave the lid 
open and I want the display yo dim. However, once I close the notebook the 
display is already slim. I activated PowerNap in settings but it didn't do 
anything

. I have that same setting in AC and however in AC power NoSleep is working 
great.

The only time that when lid closed with NoSleep and on battery with these 
settings is working is when I have Transmission open and I choose the option to 
"NOT" sleep the mac while there are still downloads. Could you add this same 
functionality as Trasnmission to the app?

Thanks for the app and for the quick response,
Regards!

Could you measure the delay before sleep? Is it the same between tries?

Can you try to uninstall Insomnia?

Hi,

I've uninstalled InsomniaX and it still goes to sleep if I don't have 
Transmission open.

The delay between sleeps is exactly the same. It's approximately 12 minutes. 
It's the same time that my laptop has sleep computer setting on battery.

Please see http://cl.ly/image/1C380E2P021L

Thanks

Hi,

Ohh, in previous message you told only about display dim... Of course the 
computer will sleep after the time specified in Energy Saver settings. If you 
don't want it - turn it to never.

But I just don't want it to go to sleep if NoSleep is activated. I don't want 
it to happen always. Can there be an option to "disable idle sleep" momentarily 
or somehing like that so that I don't have to change this. 

If you sometime forget your laptop open, it'd be great if it goes to sleep. 
However, if I have my lid closed, I don't want it to go to sleep.

Thanks!

The scheme "display opened - sleep", "display closed - do not sleep" looks very 
obscure. And if you forget to disable NoSleep and put your mac into a bag, you 
risk to get a fully discharged battery.

In addition, look at

I see your point and I understand that it's risky. I think that you should have 
the option of Sleep Lid Closed on battery and AC and Idle sleep on AC and 
battery, so that you can, on your own risk, choose and combina this options. 
This way, you give the control to the user, which I think is the smtartest move.

Thanks again for listening! (well reading)
