Public bug reported: When I select "Turn off the screen" as the action to be performed when my laptop lid is closed I get the following behavior: If I direct the computer to suspend (sleep) and then close lid of the laptop before it's finished going to sleep then the suspend process never completes. I think the laptop ought to go to sleep regardless of how quickly I close the lid.
I believe this issue is related to the bugs reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi/+bug/859178 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/387553, though I was unable to reproduce these bugs. (It is presumably also related to the fact that when I had "Sleep" selected as the action to be performed when my laptop lid was closed putting the laptop to sleep and then closing the lid too fast would result in two suspends. That is, the laptop would suspend, but when I woke it it, it would suspend a second time.) This is not a pressing issue for me since I have discovered that selecting "Do nothing" as the action to be performed when my laptop lid is closed results in the correct behavior and turning my screen off when the lid is closed but the computer is still on is not a huge priority. Nevertheless, it would be nice to fix this.
