Dear Maintainer,
There is a problem with waking from DPMS off state then my laptop's lid is open
while using xrandr.
Usage scenario:
1. Set "DISPLAY_DPMS=xrandr" and "XRANDR_OUTPUT=LVDS1" options in
/etc/default/acpi-support files.
2. Close the lid, Laptop panel go dark.
3. Open the lid and nothing happens, screen remain dark, keyboard and mouse
movements does not help.
I have discovered that the problem lies in /etc/acpi/lid.sh on line 35:
xrandr invoked with hardcoded output 'LVDS', but my Intel KMS driver assign
'LVDS1' name.
I suggest to use variable with default value, for example:
xrandr --output ${XRANDR_OUTPUT:-LVDS} --auto
Same can be applied in /usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank:
xrandr --output ${XRANDR_OUTPUT:-LVDS} --off
This worked just fine until I have uncommented "LID_SLEEP=true" option.
I think that some race condition is happening in such case:
then lid was closed, screenblank script invokes xrandr with --off and laptop
immediately goes to sleep.
It seems display does not have time to actually turn off by xrandr, it was
turned off by pm-suspend.
And then laptop awake, lid open event occurs and display is enabling by lid.sh.
But it is turning off in next moment, that brings me to the original problem
described above.
I added 'sleep' after xrandr and it works, but it's not clean solution I
suppose.
Maybe we really don't need to do DPMS off while going to sleep?
