I'm experiencing a very similar issue on a Lenovo W530 laptop running Xubuntu 13.04. Immediately after closing the lid, when I re-open the lid, the screen is frozen. It is not black, it displays what was open when the lid was closed. The mouse cursor does not move. Both mouse & keyboard are unresponsive, so I am unable to switch to a virtual terminal.
The lid close action is set to "do nothing" for both AC and battery power. I'm running XFCE with xfce-power-manager. # uname -a Linux tracey-ThinkPad-W530 3.8.0-27-generic #40-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 9 00:17:05 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux The problem may not be the acpi package, as on my system I see: % apport-collect 49521 Package acpi not installed and no hook available, ignoring -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49521 Title: Screen locks up black on laptop lid close.
