Subject: Flooded by button/lid events
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2005 10:06:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200511171006.58300.fexpop@onlinehome.de> (raw)

Hi,

on my Acer Extensa 4100 I get flooded by button/lid events while the lid is 
closed. In /var/log/acpid messages like 

[Thu Nov 17 08:53:05 2005] received event "button/lid LID 00000080 000002df"

show up more than 40 times per second!

In result, after roughly one minute of keeping the lid closed, e.g. event 
handling via lm_lid.sh from laptop-mode-tools keeps the CPU busy for about 10 
minutes. In turn, the ondemand scaling_governor (or even powernowd) scales 
the Centrino up to highest frequency, the fan starts, and power consumption 
goes up. (And /var/log/acpid gets bigger and bigger, BTW)

Is there any way top stop these events from being send unless the lid state is 
actually changed?

Regards,

Felix
