Change Lid Close Behavior in Ubuntu 24.04

 

The problem

In Ubuntu 24.04, when I close the lid, the default behavior is computer suspend. I want to change the behavior to do nothing.

The solution

$ vim /etc/systemd/logind.conf

HandleLidSwitch=lock
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=lock
HandleLidSwitchDocked=lock

$ systemctl restart systemd-logind.service
