Lutz, could you post exactly what you have in your acpi/lid.sh? Thanks.

I created one myself and run xrandr --auto or xrandr --display :0.0 --auto on the 'button/lid open' event, but it does not do anything. Running xrandr --auto blindly while the screen is dark lightens up the screen again, but then the mouse cursor is gone.

In general, the workarounds in #13 are just not feasible for most users who have little clue about Linux (this machine, for example, is for my dad), so fixing this bug should have much higher priority. Especially since this is an LTS release.
