Closing the lid causes a total freeze of my system, not even ssh is possible.

I am giving up for now. I can not find a solution on my own and I am afraid that this problem may affect others with intel graphic card / dell laptops...

My laptop is a Dell Latitude D505 with fairly fresh install and upgraded version of Lucid, Ubuntu 10.04:
> uname -a
 Linux clausen-laptop 2.6.32-16-generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 9 16:33:52 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I have also tried the "https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#Force Pipe A Quirk" with the file "/etc/X11/xorg.conf_NO_GO" which resulted in system black-out (no screen, not even ssh from other box). In the attached archive dell_lattitude_D505_Lucid.tar.gz I have added :
$ lspci -vvnn | grep -A1 "VGA compat" > vga_compat.txt
$ sudo dmidecode > dmi.txt

As well as the not working xorg.conf (generated with Xorg -configure + Option "ForceEnablePipeA" "true" ) as well as my "/etc/acpi/lid.sh"

I'll be happy to give you additional infos, just tell me what you need. If I am posting in the wrong bug, please let me know.

Just for the record: Graphics do look fine, seem to have OK performance. With my old "Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS" installation did NOT have this problem and as far as I remember I have not fixed or quirked anything...
