Re: USB disconnect wakes machine



I work around this problem by disconnecting everything else first. Then, after the lid is shut, I can disconnect the USB and the machine stays asleep.

Yes, this is expected behaviour. The unplug of a USB device generates a resume on the USB Bus, per the spec. That causes the machine to wake up. On MacOS 9 we had support for "partial wake", where we would wake half-way up, see that it was an unplug and go back to sleep. Alas, we have not yet implemented this support on X. It has never made it to the top of the priority list. No need for a bug, we already have one.

Is this by design? I noticed it in prior OSes, too.

I have to be careful to disconnect my USB cable (which goes to the brick to my Cinema Display) before closing the lid on my PowerBook, otherwise it wakes up again.

I find it hard to believe this is desired behavior.
