since I got the big bolus of updates from the CR repo a few days ago my
netbook (AcerAspire One D255E) will no longer go to standby when the
lid is closed.
This was a Gnome desktopp installation with theh MATE desktop fromm
EPEL.
I've verified that the correct setting still exists in power manager
but it persists in continuing to run when the lid closes.
it WILL go to standby if explicitly told to do so from the shutdown
dialog.
Has anyone else seen anything like this?
TIA
Fred

I've heard this happening to someone on IRC, the solution if I remember correctly is to update MATE from epel-testing.

My laptop with current CR and all mate updates (from both epel and -testing) still suspends on a lid close. Since mate comes from epel, that's where its updates will come from too. Also note that there were a bunch of CR releases in the last day or two -- after the initial large release.
