Subject: Determining Button State
Date: Sun, 08 Dec 2002 00:01:21 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DF2D221.7020005@sympatico.ca> (raw)

Hello,

Looking at rolling out some sort of ACPI script environment for acpid. 
Is there any way that the ACPI system determines exposes what state the 
subsystem is in.

When I close the lid on my laptop, I get the event -

button/lid LID 00000080 0000000b
button/lid LID 00000080 0000000c
button/lid LID 00000080 0000000d
button/lid LID 00000080 0000000e
button/lid LID 00000080 0000000f

Which doesn't seem to have anything that indicates 'down or up'.  I 
understand an 'up/down' doesn't make sense for Power or Sleep, but it 
seems pretty vital to something like a lid.

Regards,

Matthew
