[Bug 1896395] Re: lid closure behavior unpredictable

[Gerald Gilbert-Thorple]

Using systemctl status systemd-logind, I see that lid events are no longer being detected.
This behavior persists even after restarting the service.  This is *not* what is requested in logind.conf, where HandleLidSwitch=suspend and HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend.

Title:
  lid closure behavior unpredictable

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  in 20.04.01 LTS (release 20.04), suspend on lid closure works for a
  while, then one day stops working, with no error message in syslog.
  The event is not even registered.  The problem seems to start when the
  system has been inactive for long enough so that the screen is
  blanked.

   systemd:
    Installed: 245.4-4ubuntu3.2
    Candidate: 245.4-4ubuntu3.2
    Version table:
   *** 245.4-4ubuntu3.2 500
          500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       245.4-4ubuntu3 500
          500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages

  seems similar to bug #1840784, even though no error message is
  generated.
