I'm seeing this issue on a netbook - Acer Aspire One - on 32-bit Karmic Netbook Remix, but only since an apt-get update last night. Prior to that it worked fine.
The symptoms are that the lid closure is detected and the suspend script triggered - at which point, as far as I can tell, it immediately starts to wake up again. This leaves the netbook in a half-suspended state, in which the default keyring is locked (I can enter my password to unlock it) but otherwise the system is running fine - except that the power light is flashing on and off slowly, exactly as if it was in standby. Standby from the menu works just fine. As I say, this only started happening following an upgrade to four packages last night - sadly, I can only remember three: winbind, samba, and tzdata. I'm fairly certain tzdata isn't responsible, samba isn't running, and I've tried stopping winbind without effect - so my particular issue must relate to the fourth mystery package. Any suggestions for where to go next with this are appreciated - I've tried swapping lid.sh to sleep.sh as the action for APCI lid close with no effect. -- suspend when closing laptop lid doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44058 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
