Hi, I've got a Sony Vaio SZ650N/C with the same problem. I am running the AMD64 version of Hardy. I've done an acpi_listen and closed and reopend the lid - there are absolutely no events listed there, nor in the acpid.log. I've chatted with the HAL folks, thinking that the problem might be there, but also doing an 'lshal -m' and closing/opening the lid yields nothing there as well.
I've done an evtest /dev/events/input6 (which reports itself as a 'Lid Button"), and still see no events there when I colse/repoen, so I think it's somewhere else in the system. Also, just for completeness. I put some log lines at the lidbtn script so that I could see if it was ever being called, and it's not. Oh, and one more thing. Curiously, though, I've noticed that if I query the /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state It does shift from open to closed and back again when I close/open the laptop lid. Just no event fires. What kind of further information can I give you to help debug this problem? ned -- Laptop lid close button dosen't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177129 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
