    SL7/RHEL7/Centos7 - don't suspend when lid closed

    RHEL 7 and derivatives use Gnome 4, where user preferences are split between two areas: there is the familiar-looking Settings, in System Tools, but there is also a Tweak Tool, dedicated to the desktop preferences. 
    Not everything is intuitive, and it took me a while to realise that *some* setting related to power management are no longer with power management...
    One of them is the control of the suspend. To prevent your laptop going into suspend when you close the lid, go to: Applications > Utilities > Tweak Tool > Don't suspend on lid close, and turn it ON.
