[SOLVED] Fail to resume after suspend using lid and other issues

[stevef]

Try this.
Control Panel -> Xfce Screensaver
Screensaver tab 'Enable Screensaver' is disabled
Lock Screen tab 'Enable Lock Screen' is disabled
This will ensure your system doesn't try to go to a lock screen.
We can change this later.

Control Panel -> Keyboard
Application Shortcuts tab
Select a shortcut you don't use.
I chose onboard (Ctrl,Alt,O) the short cut to open the onscreen keyboard because onboard doesn't work properly, but you can choose any.
If you choose a different one modify the instructions below.

Click edit
In the 'command' box, type in

Code:

/usr/bin/xrandr --auto

Click ok
In the window that allows you to set the key combination, press Ctl,Alt and O together and then release them so the onboard command is replaced by the xrandr command
Close the settings window.

Close your lid and allow the system to suspend for a period
Open the lid
Press any key to resume and go to the black
Press Ctl, Alt, and O together.
