Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-image
I'm currently running Hardy Beta and keeping it up-to-date with dayly updates. With the new 2.6.24-kernels the lid-button of my Samsung X20 seems to be completely broken. It worked flawlessly with the 2.6.20-kernels from feisty. Since suspend didn't work with the 2.6.22-kernels from gutsy I never used them so I unfortunately can't tell, whether the lid-button worked there...
cat'ing /proc/acpi/event doesn't show up anything when closing the lid. It does however show up the right events when pushing the power- or sleepbuttons.
Same thing with the command "lshal -m": Correct events for power/sleepbutton, battery, ac-adapter and so on but nothing for lid button.
Here is what's in /proc/acpi/
cat /proc/acpi/
type: Lid Switch
state: closed
This is the output of /proc/acpi/
The kernel-image I'm currently running on is 2.6.24-
$ lsb_release -rd

It seems like my lid-button is broken on the hardware side and that this is not a kernel-issue! I can't get lid-events neither on windows, nor on old ubuntu-live-cd's where I know that it once worked. My lidbutton always reports to be closed...
Setting this to invalid.
