So I added those to rc.local so that they get executed before GDM..
and I booted up the laptop with the lid closed..

And the result was: lid state "closed", lvds-status "connected" and lvds-enabled was "enabled"..

Does that mean Fedora plymouth is doing it wrong,
or is t possible the driver itself always enabled the lvds, even when the lid is closed?
