The delay in recognizing the laptop lid event for my HP nc6140 continues in Jaunty (first reported in Intrepid). It still requires a long delay before the event is handled. Currently I use only "blank screen" on the event, and the screen will blank, for a moment, much, much later, as I continue working. I wonder what would happen if the event handler selection were changed to "shutdown" and someone continued working after they noticed the system did not shut down (right away)? Perhaps, several minutes later, they would be surprised to be booted-off in the middle of their work? Hopefully, they might be saved by the new countdown clock, if they are looking, and that may not even apply to the acpi events. Anyway, I will have this system for testing only a little while longer. The replacement may or may not experience a similar problem as the new hardware will be quite different.
