Same problem with 7.10 on Dell inspiron 4000. The screen initially blanks for about 1 second, then activates again. If the lid is closed while at the login screen, nothing happens.
I'm sure this feature worked under 7.04. I confirmed the above that /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state correctly shows if the lid is open or closed. I've also confirmed that acpi is receiving the lid open/close. @ubuntu:~$ acpi_listen button/lid LID 00000080 00000003 video VID 00000080 00000000 button/lid LID 00000080 00000004 video VID 00000080 00000000 Furthermore, running the command below, causes the screen to blank correctly, and stay blanked until mouse or keyboard brings video back. @ubuntu:/etc/acpi$ /etc/acpi/screenblank.sh I've tried everything I know to fix this. It's most definitely broken beyond my capabilities. -- Feisty HAL upgrade broke suspend on lid close https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/114595 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
