I have the exact same problem, also on an HP Compaq nc8000. The lid close button worked flawlessly in Hardy and has been broken since Intrepid.
It is still broken in Jaunty beta. Anything I can do to debug this? -- No blank screen when laptop lid is closed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
