Gnome and sleep mod

Hi there,

I was on xfce and in the settings there was an option to choose what happened when I close my laptop.  I installed gnome and I can't find this options.
Have you any idea for this issue ? I just want turn my pc in sleep mod instead of hibernate.

Thank you.

Check out this thread : https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=185599

Gnome has removed all laptop lid-close configuration because they're expecting systemd to handle it.  If you want to configure it, you'll need to setup the appropriate behaviour yourself in logind, or use an additional power management tool like acpid.  Or use a different DE that still allows lid close configuration, in addition to XFCE, Cinnamon does it too.
