Subject: lid switch on dell latitude d800 freezes system
Date: 16 May 2003 03:02:28 +0930	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1053019947.4310.20.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Hello,

I am running 2.4.21-rc1 with acpi patches.  I have also patched to run a
custom dstc which I got from someone on the net.  (The interface at
acpi.sourceforge.net fails to find the dstc that it says are there -
however the author's email address is there and he sent it to me
directly)

The only problem is that the lid switch freezes the machine.  As far as
I know the freeze only happens if something is reading from
/proc/acpi/events (although I would have to do some more testing to
verify this).

Can anyone give any hints on how to go about fixing this?
