Hi Sebastian

The extensions may have a part in it, on this laptop there is an extension to
display power off instead of suspend, and that has ceased to function.
But that could be part of something else. Gnome3 is new and these problems are
very small in comparison to what it does, but annoying.
Its not distribution dependent, which is a good thing as more will complain
about the problem.

Thanks
