Sorry for my many e-mails about hibernate.
I have two usage questions:
1) How can I disable having to enter a password after hibernate or
suspend?
2) How can I add the logout / lock screen buttons to the right side of the
panel?
I did search though the Trinity Control Center for these two but I have
not been able to locate them (yet).
Thanks!

Hi Gianluca,
For your point #2: right click on the panel, choose "Add Applet to
Panel..." and select the "Lock/Logout Buttons" applet and it is done!

Ciao Gianluca,
1) if you use TDEPowersaver, there is an option to lock the screen before suspend (look at
the general tab). This does
not show up in the TCC.
2) right click panel, add Applet "Lock/Logout buttons".
Cheers

Ciao Gianluca,
I suggest you use tdepowersave which is integrated with the TDE hw lib. KLaptop is an
extension for laptop
functionalities, but not sure what is working and what not in it.

Ciao Michele,
I installed trinity-tdepowersave and unchecked the box under "Lock screen
before suspend or standby", but it does not seem to have any effect. It
still locks the screen with both hibernate or suspend. Is there any
configuaration file where I can check whether this is really set/unset?
On a separate note: suspend does not work well on this laptop and I may
have to disable it.
On a separate note: I tried uninstalling KLaptop, most of its function do
not seem to work except to monitor the battery. I tried uninstalling it
but trinity-tdeutils depends on it, so I left it. I can hide its battery
monitor since tdepowersave also offers one and I don't need two battery
monitors. (I can always re-enable the battery monitor icon through
~/.trinity/share/config/kcmlaptoprc).
Best,
Gianluca

I can also enter
`systemctl hibernate`
from the command line (in which case it does not ask for a password upon
resuming), but I thought from the TDE buttons it may be a bit cleaner.

Ciao Gianluca,
sorry for the late reply.
I don't recall any other settings regarding the locking of the screen, but of course I
could be wrong.
It may well be a bug and the screen gets lock even when tdepowersaver has been configure
not to do it...
If anyone else can confirm the problem, we should open an issue on TGW to track this.
Cheers
