Hi all, I’ve been looking around for a solution but can’t get it to work
System: Lenovo V145-15AST
OS Fedora Linux 35 Workstation
The system detects properly the lid closure and it gets reported here
/proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state
state: closed
however the laptop never enters suspend state when I close the lid, it will eventually go to sleep after the time configured in GNOME elapses so the system is capable of sleeping, it’s just that gnome power manager fails to read the lid properly
evtest never reports any event for /dev/input/event0 which is the Lid Switch
and I keep getting this message in journalctl
Nov 25 23:24:36 fedora kernel: ACPI: button: More than one Lid device found!
There are no external monitors connected to the laptop. BIOS is the latest available for this laptop in Lenovo’s website: 8ZCN27WW (V2.06) released 03 Feb 2021.
Hi, it’s happen since the beginning of the installation or after some upgrade? Since the journal said about kernel, maybe it’s happen on newer kernel only after some upgrade.
it is a fresh install, previously I had the pre installed windows 10.
Interestingly though… there is only one folder within
/proc/acpi/button/lid/
and it’s LID0
and evtest only lists one lid
No device specified, trying to scan all of /dev/input/event*
Available devices:
/dev/input/event0: Lid Switch
/dev/input/event1: Power Button
/dev/input/event2: Power Button
/dev/input/event3: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard
/dev/input/event4: Video Bus
/dev/input/event5: Synaptics TM3336-002
/dev/input/event6: Ideapad extra buttons
/dev/input/event7: PC Speaker
/dev/input/event8: HDA ATI HDMI HDMI/DP,pcm=3
/dev/input/event9: HD-Audio Generic Mic
/dev/input/event10: HD-Audio Generic Headphone
/dev/input/event11: EasyCamera: EasyCamera
Select the device event number [0-11]:
so I don’t understand why the journal says that it detected more than one lid.
