Prevent sleep/suspend when not logged in https://monodes.com/predaelli/2024/01/08/prevent-sleep-suspend-when-not-logged-in/ https://monodes.com/predaelli/2024/01/08/prevent-sleep-suspend-when-not-logged-in/#respond Sun, 07 Jan 2024 23:04:38 +0000 https://monodes.com/predaelli/?p=11123 Recently I’ve been logged into a laptop remotely a lot. Logging out from “main” session makes my Gnome on Debian 12 go to suspend after a while. To avoid it you just have to tell:

sudo  dbus-launch gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-type 'nothing'

Thanks to WinEunuuchs2Unix for the answer I took from Prevent sleep/suspend when not logged in to a specific account; the only change is that GDM on Debian runs as root.

See also https://wiki.debian.org/Suspend#Disable_suspend_and_hibernation:

For systems which should never attempt any type of suspension, these targets can be disabled at the systemd level with the following:

sudo systemctl mask sleep.target suspend.target hibernate.target hybrid-sleep.target

To re-enable hibernate and suspend use the following command:

sudo systemctl unmask sleep.target suspend.target hibernate.target hybrid-sleep.target

A modern alternative approach for disabling suspend and hibernation is to create /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/nosuspend.conf as

[Sleep]
AllowSuspend=no
AllowHibernation=no
AllowSuspendThenHibernate=no
AllowHybridSleep=no

The above technique works on Debian 10 Buster and newer. See systemd-sleep.conf(5) for details.

If you just want to prevent suspending when the lid is closed you can set the following options in /etc/systemd/logind.conf:

[Login]
HandleLidSwitch=ignore
HandleLidSwitchDocked=ignore

Then run systemctl restart systemd-logind.service or reboot.

A suggestion https://monodes.com/predaelli/2022/08/14/a-suggestion/ https://monodes.com/predaelli/2022/08/14/a-suggestion/#respond Sun, 14 Aug 2022 07:38:12 +0000 https://monodes.com/predaelli/2022/08/14/a-suggestion/ A little suggestion to #Librem and developers, especially for : an advanced energy saving mode that turns off everything not absolutely needed. No fancy animations, black’n’white, no gradients, no sub-pixel anti-aliasing, no background services (as far as possible)

Mozilla ha deciso: Firefox dice addio al protocollo FTP https://monodes.com/predaelli/2021/04/19/mozilla-ha-deciso-firefox-dice-addio-al-protocollo-ftp/ https://monodes.com/predaelli/2021/04/19/mozilla-ha-deciso-firefox-dice-addio-al-protocollo-ftp/#respond Mon, 19 Apr 2021 19:02:00 +0000 https://monodes.com/predaelli/?p=8370

Mozilla ha deciso di disabilitare supporto al protocollo FTP in Firefox 88 e di rimuoverlo definitivamente in Firefox 90.

Speriamo che quelli di Gnome non li seguano a ruota perché il supporto FTP di GnomeVfs è proprio buonino!

Looking Glass is GNOME Shell’s integrated inspector tool and JavaScript console useful for debugging. It can be run by typing ‘lg’ in the Alt+F2 prompt and can then be exited by pressing Esc. More details are here.

Status Icons and GNOME – Form and Function https://monodes.com/predaelli/2017/09/01/status-icons-and-gnome-form-and-function/ https://monodes.com/predaelli/2017/09/01/status-icons-and-gnome-form-and-function/#respond Fri, 01 Sep 2017 06:23:47 +0000 http://monodes.com/predaelli/?p=3328 Those people of Gnome are getting wiser. They took it a while tought:

From GNOME 3.26, we are therefore planning not to show status icons in GNOME Shell by default. We feel that, long-term, this change will enable us to provide a better experience for our users (I’ll go into some detail about this in the rest of the post). We also feel that the consequences of the change won’t be as dramatic as they would have been in the past.

We do recognise that people are using status icons today and that some will continue to want to use them. That’s absolutely fine, and our decision to stop showing status icons by default is in no way a negative judgement on this. If you want or need to continue using status icons, you should feel free to use the TopIcons GNOME Shell extension. This will continue to work and the extension offers a better status icon experience than the current default anyway.

From: Status Icons and GNOME – Form and Function

They plan to change a basic UI feature that have there since almost forever – status icons were already there in Gnome 0.x – but they realized that not everyone will want to follow them and they while changing the default behaviour they still allow for the old way.

They do have become wiser. I’m positively touched.
