I haven't raised it yet because I am not so sure this will not break again those worthless unreliable LID, and if we play whack a mole between the kernel and user space, things are going to be nasty. So I'd rather have this fixed in systemd along with the unreliable LID switch knowledge, so we are sure that the kernel behaves the way we expect it to be. > > Thanks for working on this, > No worries.
