My linux config and rc files https://git.sommerfeld.dev/dotfiles/atom/etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/20-lid-ac.conf?h=master 2026-05-29T10:18:15Z 2026-05-29T10:18:15Z sommerfeld sommerfeld@sommerfeld.dev 2026-05-29T10:18:15Z urn:sha1:ec3734c5ef9fcfe97c21cd19f198ec779ab5f052 New, simpler suspend policy: AC plugged in -> never auto-suspends (lid close ignored, idle no-op) On battery only -> lid close suspends, swayidle suspends at 30 min idle This replaces the SSH/zellij-aware inhibit machinery with a rule that matches the user's mental model: if you don't want the machine to sleep, plug it in. Long-running tasks (builds, downloads, SSH sessions, headless services) just need AC. Changes: * etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/20-lid-ac.conf: set HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=ignore so logind itself handles the AC case at the source. No userspace daemon, no race, no rate-limit risk. * dot_local/bin/on-battery-suspend: tiny POSIX wrapper that exits 0 when any /sys/class/power_supply/{AC,ADP}*/online == 1, else execs `systemctl suspend`. * dot_config/systemd/user/swayidle.service: add `timeout 1800 on-battery-suspend`. Idle suspend now exists, but only when on battery. * Delete zellij-inhibit-suspend.{path,service} + watcher script and remove the entry from systemd-units/user.txt. The .path re-trigger storm bug is moot because the whole mechanism is gone. Manual suspends (sway XF86Sleep keybind, sway power submode `s`, `systemctl suspend` over SSH) still always work regardless of AC -- explicit user intent wins. Also drop /migrate-podman-to-btrfs.sh from .gitignore; the one-off migration script has been deleted now that the user has switched their podman storage to the btrfs driver. On-host steps to apply: chezmoi apply -v systemctl --user daemon-reload systemctl --user reset-failed zellij-inhibit-suspend.service zellij-inhibit-suspend.path || true systemctl --user stop zellij-inhibit-suspend.path zellij-inhibit-suspend.service || true systemctl --user disable zellij-inhibit-suspend.path || true systemctl --user restart swayidle.service # logind drop-in is reloaded automatically by the etc deploy script. Verify: systemctl status systemd-logind | grep -i lid loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID | grep -i lid # Unplug AC -> close lid -> should suspend. # Plug AC -> close lid -> nothing happens.
