Hi
I found my system ubuntu won't never go to sleep when I close the lid.
I checked the state file is always filled with "closed" even when I mimic a lid
close with a small magnet instead of the true lid: the backlight goes off, but
the computer won't go to sleep.
It is easy to reproduce and check: in a terminal I send
cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/state
closed
when lid is opened and no magnet present
Then I prepare again the command in the terminal (I don't hit enter at this
moment)
I place the magnet to mimic lid close, wait some minutes to give time for pc to
sleep (it won't, I know it because the sleep led won't blink light)
then I hit Enter
then I remove the magnet and (no password prompt) see the command returned ...
closed :(
Tryied with 3.0.0.26, 3.2rc4 and 3.3.0.999, all the same.
Suspend with Fn+F1 and idle tempo work OK.
Lid close works in the side double boot Windows
