Hi,

With my Toshiba A100 I'm experienced the same things as Sudarsha. I
think the problem's root probably somewhere in the kernel, because the
proc/acpi/button/lid did not refreshed with this bios after a sleep-
resume cycle.

I'm realized that the acpid have been able to handle the lid state
change, so I write a little patch, and a script for the pm-utils
package.

This is a workaround, not solves the problem, but the machine reliably
sleep when the lid closed.

the file in /etc/pm/sleep.d is necessary beacause if the hal lid state
remains true, and the power state changed (ac disconnected) machine will
go to sleep.
