Same issue present on Toshiba l505-2997 laptop. Have tried using sleepbtn.sh, sleep.sh and lid.sh but none overcome the issue. Closing the lid does not register an event in lshal. Strangely, if you force suspend manually and then log back in, the laptop will suspend upon lid close, but just one time. Subsequent lid closings have no effect and do not register an event in lshal. So can suspend manually every time, but lid close event does not trigger suspend unless right after the first manual suspend since reboot.
