No sleep option in power menu #859

Open ivlis opened 2 weeks ago

ivlis commented 2 weeks ago

I'm not sure if that's by design or it's a bug, but I don't see a sleep option in the power menu:

The settings also have no option to configure sleep for the laptop lid state.

Suspend is sleep.

ivlis commented 2 weeks ago

Okay, true; that means hibernate is missing :)

git-f0x commented 2 weeks ago

I think the general trend in distros is to remove hibernate, because it can have issues.

locomot1f commented 2 weeks ago

this is also mentioned in Issue: Feature Request - #537 I'm also looking forward to these options hopefully making it to this DE.

@git-f0x - Is this considered a distro? I was under the impression that this is a DE. These features exists on in POP! OS.

git-f0x commented 2 weeks ago

No, it is a DE. But I've seen some distros (e.g. Fedora) not having a hibernate option, due to issues. It could probably be conditionally added if it's a really wanted feature (though sleep and shut down are probably enough for most people). Edit: While I don't have an install of Pop 22.04 to check, by default, Pop has 4GB of on-disk swap, which isn't enough for hibernate when having >4GB of RAM.

i had to do my research on the difference between Hibernate and Suspend.

IMO hibernate really isn't worth it. Sleep/suspend has lasted me weeks on a full battery
