New keyboard has no sleep button

  • 772

I got a new keyboard(Lenovo) but it has no sleep key which I use very frequently.

I have a script to do the suspension.

Can I take a rarely used key, like the Pause/Break key and cause it's pressing to put my computer in suspend mode?

I have installed xbindkeys.

    You can assign the command systemctl suspend to a shortcut key. You can try key combinations for yourself in the dialog for assigning shortcut keys: you will see which work and which cannot be used.
