Public bug reported: Bug #89860 was marked as Won't Fix, because it was filed against a series that is no longer supported, but I noticed it in 10.04 and it still exists in 12.04.
acpi_listen does not detect any activity when the lid button is pushed. It seems a problem that affects many HP laptops. For me (HP NC6320) status of the button is in /proc/acpi/video/C083/DOS I fixed this bug in 10.04 Lucid, by putting the following lines (both needed, in this order!) into /etc/rc.local echo 1 > /proc/acpi/video/C083/DOS echo 0 > /proc/acpi/video/C083/DOS However, after dist-upgrade to 12.04.1 this trick does not work anymore. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Bug #89860 was marked as Won't Fix, because it was filed against a - series that is no longer supported, but for I noticed it in 10.04 and - still exists in 12.04. + series that is no longer supported, but I noticed it in 10.04 and still + exists in 12.04. acpi_listen does not detect any activity when the lid button is pushed.
