Title: /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/state always says "closed" Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 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 --- ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: i386 CheckboxSubmission: ac665960bd595003e408fa25f6066d31 CheckboxSystem: 331fbefb4b1f6727f4a8261fee7507c9 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release i386 (20101007) Package: pm-utils 1.4.1-8ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: all Tags: oneiric Uname: Linux 3.3.0-030300-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-11-12 (155 days ago) UserGroups: --- ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: i386 CheckboxSubmission: ac665960bd595003e408fa25f6066d31 CheckboxSystem: 331fbefb4b1f6727f4a8261fee7507c9 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release i386 (20101007) Package: gnome-power-manager 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: i386 Tags: oneiric Uname: Linux 3.3.0-030300-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-11-12 (155 days ago) UserGroups: To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/982179/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
