Title:
  [Samsung NP530U3B-A01UK] Laptop does not suspend on lid close

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my wife's laptop, (a Samsung NP530U3B), all goes well except when I close the lid it does not suspend. I've checked the settings and it is set to suspend on lid close, though does not. Things I've noticed are:
  1 - Clicking suspend in the power menu works fine.
  2 - When I cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state it always returns open, even when closed, (I ran a script that looped the cat then closed the lid)
  3 - Running the latest Ubuntu 12.10 alpha 2 does not work either.
  4 - The latest mainstream kernel 'linux-image-3.5.0-999-generic_3.5.0-999.201207190406_i386' does not work either.
  5 - One odd thing was that after installing the latest bios on the laptop using Windows 7, then restarting into Ubuntu worked once, then it never worked again. I tried booting in to Windows then rebooting back in to Ubuntu to see if that is what changed something but it did not work that time.
