T540p ⇒ missing wake up on lid open settings in BIOS

#1 Post by l0ki » Sun Aug 02, 2015 12:01 pm

Hello!

i double checked every option in BIOS and haven't found anything that may turn off the wake-up if the lid is opened.

Am I missing something, or this is somehow controlled by OS/ACPI settings? I use Arch Linux if that matters.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum. :)

If it's anything like older Thinkpads, then:

1) It's supposed to be OS-controlled
2) It's supposed to mirror the lid close setting. If PC is set to sleep on lid close, it should wake up on lid open.
3) In practice, there may be bugs. For instance, my X220 often wakes up on lid open, even if it is set to do nothing on lid close.
Current: X220 4291-4BG, T410 2537-R46, T60 1952-F76, T60 2007-QPG, T42 2373-F7G
Collectibles: T430s (IPS FHD + Classic Keyboard), X32 (IPS Screen)
