[Impact]
On the current systemd in raring there are the following two power related issues.
* Suspend does not get triggered when laptop lid is closed
* Power off does not work due to a missing poweroff target.
[Test Case]
* Install systemd and a logind enabled build of g-s-d
* Close laptop lid, system will not suspend
* select poweroff from usermenu, machine will not power off
NB: gnome3-staging PPA has temporary workarounds for both these issues, so it shouldnt be used for testing.
[Regression Potential]
Very Low, both these fixes are rather trivial, however they fix very serious issues.
=== Original Bug Report ===
In raring, using Ubuntu GNOME, when you close the lid nothing happens. It used to suspend in Quantal. It seems that the problem comes from the lack of systemd according to http://www.infty.nl/wordpress/2012/12/gnome-3-on-ubuntu-raring-and-suspend/. From the same webpage, there is a workaround: put the following into /etc/acpi/local/lid.sh.post, and make it executable.
#!/bin/bash
grep -q closed /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/state
if [ $? = 0 ]; then
pm-suspend
fi
