Comment 5 for bug 379008

If you are seeing this with acpi-support 0.123, then this is not an acpi-support issue at all, because 0.123 has no suspend handling of its own whatsoever.

You say that this is not an issue when suspending via pm-suspend. Is this the case even if you set the lid close event to blank screen, close the lid, and then call pm-suspend?
