Package: acpi-support Version: 0.86-1 Severity: normal Hi,
/etc/acpi/lid.sh does not work right for me. First problem was that lid.sh calls /usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank, which only turns off the screen, but does not put the computer to sleep. As opinions differ about what to do upon lid closure, this behaviour is fine with me (a debconf question "What's supposed to happen when you close the lid" would be cool, though). I just replaced the call to screenblank with a call to s2ram. However, sometimes (sorry, cannot be more specific) lid.sh just does not work at all. I close the lid, and s2ram (or screenblank, for that matter) just is not executed. I put some debugging statements into the script. The problem is that '[ x"$XAUTHORITY" != x"" ]' (around line 17) returns False, which results in nothing being executed. To have this fixed for my needs, I just replaced the whole 'for x in /tmp/.X11-unix/*; do .... done' stuff with /usr/sbin/s2ram, but it'd be neat if this could be fixed for real. If you need any more information or tests, feel free to contact me.
