Just for the record: the same workaround was necessary on my HP/Compaq
nc6220 (similar but not identical model) in order to make the lid work
properly under Hardy. The problem was a bit different, since the kernel
reported the lid state as always open, regardless of the actual state of
the lid button. Similar to the original report, though, closing the lid
once caused spurious lid events to be sent about every 30 seconds,
which, in turn, caused very annoying screen flickering.
Many thanks to Gerhard for mentioning the workaround. This issue was
making me crazy.
