Bug Description
Binary package hint: upower
On a Sony Vaio W (vpcw115xg) netbook the laptop lid is always reported as closed. /proc/acpi/
BIOS version r0170e1
This interrupts proper gnome-power-manager operations, since that can be configured [ blank screen | suspend | hibernate ] -- causing the netbook to suspend at inopportune moments.
upower -d attached (lid-is-present: yes; lid-is-closed: yes) One of the two must go.
This is a follow-up of # 481312

This may or may not be a BIOS bug.
I'd still like to be able to disable acpi/lid/LID, since this is extremely annoying with rolling blackouts.
