Hi Elliot,

thanks for the message, but it's usually best to directly send messages to the
bug report, that way it's archived on the bug tracker (sorry we didn't reply
earlier on it).

That's definitely not a “critical” bug though (thus adjusting the severity).
And unfortunately the “upstream” fix isn't really good because that actually
means just not listening to the lid events, and that's a behavior which I
think we do want.

As far as I can tell it does work fine on other configurations, but maybe
there's an issue with the proprietary NVidia driver (if you can try with
nouveau or something like that, it'd be an interesting data point).

Regards,
