[Solved] On open lid screen flashes desktop then blanks

Hello fellow archers, I've been dealing with the following nagging issue:

On open lid my desktop flashes for a few brief seconds then the screen goes blank. I have to type or use the touchpad to get my desktop again.

I believe something in Gnome settings is the origin of this problem because:

- I have 2 users running Gnome and on the second user I do not have this issue.

- On the user with this issues by stopping gnome-settings-daemon momentarily the issues is resolved.


gnome-settings-daemon depends on gsettings-desktop-schemas which leads me to believe maybe some setting got mucked up somehow.

I recently updated Gnome so there may be some connection to that.

Anywho, any help is appreciate

Cheers

I think I've solved the issue for now, by putting

the pm-suspend command in the lid event in the /etc/acpi/handler.sh

and added the laptop monitor off "script" in /etc/acpi/actions/lm_lid.sh as described in
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ac … _Power_Off

Seems to work.
