** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
- On Jaunty latest on a Dell Latitude X1 (i915GMS), with an externally
- connected Dell 2405, the external (sometimes the internal) screen stays
- dark after going through suspend/resume via lid close.
- 
- I can mostly recover from the situation by Alt-F1 to shell and
- restarting GDM. However, things are very weird afterwards. Both gnome
- panels sits directly on top of each other. Maximizing windows on the
- external screen result in ~100 pixel wide windows, although the screen
- has got 1920 pixels and the desktop background spreads to all of those.
+ On Karmic latest KMS (and Jaunty Non-KMS) on a Dell Latitude X1
+ (i915GMS), with an externally connected Dell 2405, suspending by closing
+ the lid destroys the video configuration. Briefly before going to
+ standby, the displays switch to mirrored mode and a low resolution.
+ After waking up, the configuration has to be manually restored via
+ xrandr or Display Properties.
  
  - Suspending via FUSA or pm-suspend instead works as expected.
  - Turning on "Pipe-A forcing" does not help with the problem.
- - I have the same issue on Karmic and Non-KMS (either EXA or UXA), but *not* 
on KMS.
- - The bug shows up in either extended desktop or mirrored configuration, does 
not matter.
- - Kind of related: When I deactivate the external display with screen 
resolution prefs and close the lid, the external display is briefly activated 
and used for (extended?) Desktop - why?
  
  This is a regression from Intrepid and Hardy.
+ 
+ ANALYSIS OF THE PROBLEM:
+ 
+ - destroying the display config happens somewhere within acpid, because the 
issue is not present when I shutdown acpid.
+ - /etc/acpi/events/asus-wireless seems to be involved, because when I move 
that away (and reload acpid), the issue is not present
+ - that event invokes /etc/acpi/asus-wireless.sh
+ - destroying the display config happens somewher inside 
toggleAllWirelessStates(), because when I comment this and all following lines 
out the issue is not present. If this line is still in, and the following out, 
the issue is present.
+ - I currently do not know how to debug further
