Thread: Ubuntu won't suspend automatically any more


hi,

in last few weeks, ubuntu has stopped sleeping automatically. i've gone system settings > power, , verified (and toggled) "suspend on inactive for" 5 minutes (for both battery , "when plugged in"), system stays awake.

, i've used code similar to
code:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout 300 $ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-battery-timeout 300
to set timeout values. i've verified these in dconf editor. previously, set quite low make computer sleep quickly, no longer works either.

i'm not sure if relevant, under old versions of ubuntu, if wanted computer never suspend (via cli), set
code:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac false
at point, seemed have been depreciated (and gives me error "no such key 'sleep-inactive-ac'"). found it enough set sleep-inactive-ac-timeout 0. worked while, @ point auto-suspend stopped working. oddly enough, sleep-inactive-ac key still present when via dconf editor. however, when click it, says "no schema", , summary, etc. fields blank.

i'm not sure if relevant, i've uninstalled gnome-screensaver, , installed xscreensaver. have tried killing xscreensaver , re-installing gnome-screensaver, did not help.

also, i've tried setting sleep-display-ac 4 seconds via dconf editor, had no effect either.

desperation bump!

Thread: Can not create raid array: mdadm: no raid-devices specified.

hello! i'm trying setup software raid on server, fail @ first step: code: root@sandnabba:/root# mdadm -c /dev/md0 -c512 -l5 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 mdadm: no raid-devices specified. what doing wrong!? are sure -c equivalent --create? also, think need space after -c , -l options, value shouldn't command, or should have = between. @ man pages mdadm , double check spelling.

hi, if developing platform independent software in linux using gtk+/gtkmm , you've managed cross compile windows, guide you. i'm posting because after researching topic myself, encountered many posts people have abandoned gtk+/gtkmm wxwidgets because of gtks ugly default appearance in windows/wine. gtk+ themeable in windows/wine gnome. have set correctly . . . here's how. guide gtkmm gtk+ similar.
