Description stef 2012-02-24 19:24:05 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

Initially I had asigned different behaviour for suspending to my activities and maybe this was the reason: switching between acitivities caused sometimes a 3-times suspend when they were not used for some time.
Now nothing is set anymore for suspend and even "never suspend" but still same error.  To test with a new clean account maybe.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Switching acitivities after some hour.

Actual Results:  
PC suspending

Expected Results:  
nothing should happen

Happened to me too. Impossible to stop; I had to restart the laptop. I am using Kubuntu Precise 12.04.
I am available to help debugging it; tell me what to do if re-happen.
Comment 2 stef 2012-08-22 09:36:22 UTC
Is still happening, but I found how to avoid: it's only happening when "suspend on lid close" is activated. No problems anymore when I choose "suspend after 10 minutes".

Other detail: when activated "lid close > suspend" it also suspends when switching from power supply to battery and viceversa.

This happened to me too
Comment 4 Oliver Henshaw 2013-04-10 14:12:15 UTC
Is the lid actually closed when this happens, or is it open?

If you can reproduce it, please enable "kded" [1] and "7020 kded4" in kdebugdialog and attach the output of 'tail -f .xsession-errors' when this happens.

[1] If you can't see this entry first time in kdebugdialog then logout and try again.

The lid was open,  but it doesnt happen anymore, but I can't tell since when.

Comment 7 Matthias 2013-05-06 16:37:21 UTC
One additional comment: The problem only occurs if I put my laptop on the docking station while it's in standby. After waking it up it always switches into standby when I switch the activity. After a restart the problem is gone.
This way I can always reproduce the problem. It does not matter if I went into standby via closing the lid, hitting the standby button or automatically after some time.
If I put the Laptop into standby on the docking, remove it and put it back on without waking it up, everything is still working. However if I wake it up in between, put it back to sleep and dock it again the problem occurs.

This bug is reported on libsolid which is the kdelibs4 version of the solid library.  It is now in maintenance mode.  If you think it should still be fixed in the KDE Frameworks 5 version of solid please move it to or report a bug on frameworks-solid or Powerdevil.
Comment 9 Andrew Crouthamel 2018-09-04 15:45:59 UTC
Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Please try again with the latest version and submit a new bug to frameworks-solid if your issue persists. Thank you!
