Wake on LAN / WOL problem #170

Closed t3e closed 3 months ago

t3e commented 3 months ago

I've noticed a problem when I'm waking a system from sleep mode over network with a WOL package. Afterwards the timeout events no longer work (but resume still does for some reason).

timeout1 before_sleep resume1 after_resume timeout1 before_sleep

-> wakeup via WOL

after_resume resume1

(no more timeout events...)

This only happens with wake on LAN!

Ok I think it's clear now what the problem is: If before the suspend both timeouts have passed and no user interaction follows after the wakeup, then there isn't another timeout event after the after_resume event if no user interaction follows. I think I could fix this manually with some shell script but maybe it would be nice if the timeout timers would be reset automatically after every resume from suspend mode.

I've changed my mind, I think it makes more sense the way it works now.
