Well, have you seen the recent series (http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=149431335204701&w=2 and the following) from Lv? He evidently agrees with you that "ACPI / button: Remove lid_init_state=method mode" should be reverted, but then there are differences. Can you please have a look at that and let me know what's wrong with it in your view? I'd like to have a full picture if poss. Thanks, Rafael
