Bug#702880: Acknowledgement (linux-image-3.8-trunk-amd64: Suspend locks when the laptop lid is closed)
I should add to that bug report that suspending and waking up works
perfectly fine if I manually invoke "sudo sudo pm-suspend
--quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode". The phrase "text mode" in PM-ACTION(8)
gave the final hint. However, I have no idea how the Gnome menu knew how
to invoke it with the right quirks, whereas the kernel had no idea when
I just closed the Lid...
