Hi;
I have installed archlinux on a HP Stream 11-r004nf netbook. Everything was fine except the wifi driver rtl8723be. I needed to use the one from the lwfinger github rtlwifi_new repo. never mind.
When I close the lid, the laptop does not suspend to ram. This happens in budgie (but in gnome too). I can see in the log of system-logind that the lid has been closed and opened.
When I choose in the menu to suspend, it works without problem.
I have tried to explicitly state HandleLidSwitch=suspend in /etc/system/logind.conf but that didn't change anything.
I don't know where to look now.

Gnome overrides the settings in logind.conf.
You can use Gnomes settings to enable suspend on lid close.

I don't remember havng seen it in the gnome settings center. There is one option for the power button but I don't see anything about the lid.
EDIT: So instead I used HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend in /etc/systemd/logind.conf and it works.
I don't knwo why it thinks that my netbook is docked. It is not. It was once connected to an external monitor but not anymore.
EDIT2. It seems related to the hp-wmi kernel module which is buggy
