[Bug 1574120] Re: Notebook doesn't suspend when lid is closed after update to 16.04

[Joris van Rooij]

This bug affects me as well and as many of the people in earlier
comments I have a HP laptop as well (EliteBook 840 G3).

The workaround in #5 works for me as well. Could systemd be thinking
that the laptops are docked even if they are not?

I also noticed that the folder /sys/devices/platform/dock.0 is missing
on my laptop. This folder is supposed to contain a file with the docked
status. Maybe this is the cause of our problems?

Other people affected by this: Could you check if the
/sys/device/platform/dock.0 folder is missing for you too?

Next question would be how to fix it, I don't know the answer to that...

Title:
  Notebook doesn't suspend when lid is closed after update to 16.04

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My notebook does not suspend after upgrading from 15.10 to 16.04.

  According to system settings the notebook should suspend when lid is
  closed but actually this does not happen. Instead it continues to run
  as if nothing had happened.

  With the previous versions of ubuntu (14.04-15.10) everything worked
  fine.

  My System: HP Pavilion dv7.
