Since it is somewhat related to ACPI, please open a bug in ACPI
category on bugzilla.kernel.org. It is a great place to track this
kind of issues.

It was suggested to me to open a kernel bug (possibly starting under
ACPI), however I never got to it.. I don't know where kernel bugs are
reported officially, and was busy at the time. (still am). I do try and

bugzilla.kernel.org

reply to others with the same problems though... finding the webpage
which suggested that fix was not trivial!

It is not easy to track it in emals.


My lid switch is just above the keyboard, on the right hand side of the
left hand screen hinge. It is just a tiny piece of plastic protruding
from the case. Push it, and the screen goes off. Hold it, and wiggle the
mouse (touchpad), and the naughty screen comes back on.

Most importantly for me, the workaround brings the max CPU speed
available with speed step back to what it is supposed to be on my
laptop, and the BIOS actually boots much faster.
