Hi Len,

Could have another look at linux-acpi thread:
[patch] Refresh lid state on resume
http://marc.info/?t=118467309200008&r=1&w=2

It came out that moving GPE activation before _WAK is called, fixes the
problem. Not sure whether this one should still be added. IMO we should
try with the real fix (moving GPEs before _WAK) first. If there are
still machines having the problem, adding this one can still be added at
later time, it's harmless.
The patch to activate GPEs before _WAK is this one, can you take it pls:

or do you think it's too risky?

Thanks,

     Thomas
