Can confirm this issue and it is the same in Jessie *with* Bpo Kernel. Try now everything in Strecht "button.lid_init_state module=method" ignore and open, no change. We have four affected Notebooks in the Office, three Dell and one Asus. On my Stretch Asus Notebook "cat /sys/module/button/parameters/lid_init_state" show every time (screen open or closed) "open". Any workaround? Samuel
