I realize that you can set the power preferences for when to shutdown, suspend, and spin down hard disks and so on.
However, I find that seems to only work when I've logged in and then leave the computer - the power will suspend after the specified time, for example.
If I just turn on the computer and not log in, then it stays on indefinitely.
Is there a way to set the power preferences for the computer when no one is logged in?
The reason I keep the power on without logging in is to use this particular computer as my file server. I'd like it to suspend at night when I go to bed, but, each morning when I check on it, my computer is still on.
I'm using LMDE2.
