Seems my concerns about this were justified - https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-March/009613.html
The upstream change feels like one of those that makes sense "in theory" but doesn't take all hardware configurations into account. Martin, to isolate g-s-d, remove your monitors.xml file (in .config somewhere). If that is not present, AFAIK g-s-d will not attempt to do any changes to your system. If that makes the problem go away, then this bug should focus on g-s-d. Otherwise, perhaps reverse-quirks in the kernel are needed. I might even suggest backing out the upstream patch, and sticking with individual quirks. Quirking individual systems means a lot of work, but at least it's well understood how to recognize the problem and incorporate the quirk. -- [2.6.32-19 regression] Does not check lid status any more, external screen powered off https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556253 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
