Thanks. At least I know that this is not something wrong with my configuration. |

As I mention before this is a small problem and of course I can live |
| 15 |
with it too, but |
| 16 |
this is not a point. I often leave my notebook for a few hours to compile some |
| 17 |
programs and simply it would be nice if the screen stays off during that time. |
| 18 |
Moreover, if the lid is closed I expect that the screen stays off as well. |

Fortunately, at least I have the simple solution with switching to the |
| 20 |
console ... |
