Good Afternoon,
I have weird problem with the lid switch on an old Dell Latitude
D505 laptop. I did a clean install of Jessie and everything is working
fine, except the lid switch freezes the computer.
It's not a suspend problem, because I can suspend properly from the
shutdown menu and the suspend button on the laptop. The computer
suspends correctly if I do a pm-suspend command.
However, when I close the lid, the computer screen goes black
except for the cursor and it does not move. I cannot do a ctrl+alt+F1 to
get to a terminal, nor can I restart the X session. I even set the lid
behavior to do nothing, and the same behavior occurs.
The laptop had Wheezy on it before and the lid switch worked as
expected.
I did not see anything in /var/log/syslog or
/var/log/pm-suspend.log that could explain this. Could anyone point out
how I can debug/fix the laptop lid switch so it does not freeze the
computer?
Charles Fabbri
