Same problem with Kubuntu Feisty {and Edgy} on Dell Inspiron 700m. The lid state {/proc/acpi/button/lid/*/state} is always reported as closed and hal doesn't detect any lid event {no output from `lshal -m`}. `acpi_listen` doesn't detect any events either.
I've searched launchpad and found related bug #70102 and #89860 - the latter bug reporting that the lid is always in 'open' state. ** Attachment added: "dmidecode output for Dell Inpiron 700m" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7479818/dmidecode.dell.inspiron.700m -- On ASUS M6R, laptop lid is always reported as closed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66477 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
