@Carney For Sleep... Not sure if this will work for you but works well on my mini..
When it comes to laptops - I prefer hibernate as power is completely shut off, suspend goes into low power but continues to use power (which depletes battery and if in a bag will get warm)...
Again this is my preference.. I also don't have login after waking enabled..
In the 3.x series you don't have xscreensaver... But these same settings worked in 2.x with xscreensaver usable..
1st - Disable LightLocker2nd set XFCE Power Settings.. Again these are mine..
General Tab: Closing lid hibernates the system in either power mode.. Power button shuts down, other buttons not enabled... all check boxes enabled.
System Tab: PC fuctionality
On Batt: Hibernate after XX minutes (mine is 20)
On Power: Suspend after XX minutes (mine is 30)
Critical is 10% and ask
Display Tab: Screen Functionality - check box enabled
On Batt: Blank 1 minute - Sleep 5 - Off 10
On Power: Never for all
*only screen is off - moving mouse/key will wake screen instantly
Brightness mine are: On Batt: 20% after 120 and On Power 80% after never
Remaining tabs nothing..
When the screen sleeps, the system wakes instantly as it is still on full power..
Suspend will wake instantly if short duration it may enter hibernation if enabled and take longer to wake or will stay suspended until power is depleted. This maybe why you notice a reboot.
- LED will pulsate.. Closing lid with suspend enabled - opening lid will wake. If menu and choose suspend; power button to wake.
Hibernate takes the longest to wake and resembles a boot; you'll see grub but desktop will load open apps.
- Power button to wake, LED are off.
