Disable Suspend on Lid Close With Opensuse Tumbleweed with command line

Just installed OpenSUSE TumbleWeed on a laptop, and since it’s going to be used as a ‘server’, the lid will be closed most of the time and there is no GUI installed.

But the default action is to suspend the computer when the lid closes…

• Edit/create /etc/systemd/logind.conf
• Open the file /etc/systemd/logind.conf in your favourite editor. If it’s a fresh install, the file will probably not exist.
• Add the following

[Login]
HandleLidSwitch=ignore
LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes

• Restart logind;

systemctl restart systemd-logind

The lid can be closed without suspending the computer!
