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.
