I’m trying to use my FW13AMD with Fedora Linux in docked mode, i.e. lid closed, external monitor, keyboard and mouse etc. but every time I close the lid it immediately sleeps, and I’m unable to wake it with the keyboard or mouse. I’ve seen posts about this working under windows, so am I missing something? There didn’t seem to be any relevant settings in Gnome Settings

    Change to the KDE Plasma desktop and it takes like 2 clicks

    I had the same issue with Fedora 39. After upgrading, I noticed the option to not suspend with lid closed missing in Tweaks. I did a good search and someone suggested editing a config file. I got it to work but I didn’t document it.

    If I find it, I’ll update, but I suggest you googling it like I did. Or someone here may have already posted the right file to edit.

    I found this annoying, and not sure if the missing setting is intentional or not.
