how to disable lid events in kernel (acpi)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My Dell D800 latitude appears to have a buggy lid switch. Sometimes
when the lid is closed, the sleeping laptop wakes up.  I would like to
tell  ACPI to ignore all lid events, but cannot understand how to do
it without removing acpi altogether.  I don't want to do that, because
suspend is otherwise working fine now.  I understand I could remove
the kernel's "button" module, but then I'd lose the power button,
which I need to wake up the laptop.

Basically, I just wish I could change the LID status in ACPI, so
enabled changes to disabled in this output below.


# cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Device  Sleep state     Status
LID       3            * enabled
PBTN       4            * enabled
PCI0       3            disabled
USB0       1            disabled
USB1       1            disabled
USB2       1            disabled
USB3       1            disabled
MODM       3            disabled
PCIE       4            disabled

Any advice.
