Comment 131 for bug 1574120

Same problem on Ubuntu 19.10 on HP 250 G7.

Tried editing logind.conf as per previous suggestions, but no combination solved the problem.

Tried installing pm-utils, which weren't installed (see #117), that didn't help either.

Tried turning off the automatic suspend and automatic blank screen in the Power settings, thinking that they might for whatever reason be interfering; no success.

Tried uncommenting InhibitDelayMaxSec, HoldoffTimeoutSec and LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited (with both 'yes' and 'no'), none of those did it.

Closing the lid only blanks the screen (fans are running), even if I leave it for some time. Opening the lid turns the screen back on, but doesn't open up the login screen.

Besides the unsuccessful editing of logind.conf, the only other concurrent issue that I haven't found anyone else encountering, is that, in my case, closing the lid and then opening it also turns on Airplane mode, and then the next time I close it and open it, it turns the Airplane mode off.

As I often need a quick suspend, as a temporary workaround, I set it up so that the physical power button suspends it. This works as intended, without any problems, so instead of having to close the lid, I have to press the button, then close the lid. It's better than having to open the top right menu, press Alt and click suspend, then close the lid, every time, but I'd still like to solve the problem properly...
