[Bug 70102] Re: Problems w/ Laptop always suspending

[Luka Renko]

Jonathan, this lshal output is with opened lid?

The problem is that ACPI/hal claims the following:

udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/acpi_LID'
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/acpi_LID'  (string)
  linux.hotplug_type = 4  (0x4)  (int)
  button.has_state = true  (bool)
  button.state.value = true  (bool)
  info.capabilities = {'button'} (string list)
  info.category = 'button'  (string)
  info.product = 'Lid Switch'  (string)
  button.type = 'lid'  (string)
  info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer'  (string)
  linux.acpi_type = 10  (0xa)  (int)
  linux.acpi_path = '/proc/acpi/button/lid/LID'  (string)

The problem is that button.state.value is true, which mean that lid is
closed. This means that the problem is not in powermanager, but most
probably in kernel/ACPI/HAL. Can you also provide the output of the
following:

cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/*

This is what kernel thinks about you lid and should match what lshal
reports: if they match, the problem is in kernel/ACPI/HW, but if they do
not match, then the bug is in HAL.
