Reply To: Suspend – Command Line – help?

[rejMember]

BobC-

Reinstalled AntiX w/ LXDE so that no previous configurations would interfere (such as ‘systemctl suspend’ or Xfce4 power mngr).
No success with attempts to resolve listed below. Although it would be nice to know why it doesn’t work, will just use Xfce4 Power Manager and be satisfied.

Thanks very much for your help – learned more useful information with every suggestion.
