Re: How to change Grub menu item description

Hello fehlix,

Read elsewhere that the correct format of the GRUB_OS_PROBER_SKIP_LIST is GRUB_OS_PROBER_SKIP_LIST=UUID@/dev/????

To read

GRUB_OS_PROBER_SKIP_LIST="B22CF5132CF4D2F9@/dev/sda1 2C88743C8874071C@/dev ...

Re: Display not resuming from Power Save Put to Sleep After & Switch Off After [Solved]

Hello Charlie Brown

Don't know why but I am having the same problem again.

I checked power settings and in Security it mentions "Light-locker" so it seems to be using the correct screensaver.

I don't know if it started after a reboot or related to changes I am making in grub (another thread I ...
