Newer versions of the driver stop the bios from touching the hw.  This prevents
the bios from reprogramming the hw behind the drivers back (which often leads
to locks or undesired behavior).  Everything can be controlled by sw now.  You
need update your acpi scripts to use xrandr to change turn the LCD screen off
when the lid is closed.

Here are some examples:
