sleep with crond

Post by buggy_the_clown » 2019/06/16 08:39:30

hey guys, please some help

I have ubuntu in my laptop but after some "experiments" (i tried to unistall ubuntu mate desktop and install lubuntu desktop which is lighter) i have lost settings about power options and now my laptop never sleeps. So, i think to do it with a script or with crond. Its exactly the same as centOS. Is this possible? Which is the command in centOS detects inactivity? Please do not bother with the distro, after all ubuntu have systemd in the latest versions..

You'll need to ask on an Ubuntu forum as it's off topic here.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
