Title:
  Problems when closing lid on Gateway and Acer notebooks

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a Gateway NE56R and sometimes unusual things happen when
  closing the lid. It's likely that this also affects Acer Aspire
  notebooks because of the hardware similarities. Usually, closing the
  lid will cause the built-in wireless (a Broadcom BCM4313, 14e4:4727)
  to greatly slow down communication. Don't let the fact that the
  wireless is a BCM4313 fool you; there are many bugs and problems that
  have been reported with it, but this version of the kernel fixes my
  wireless problems, so don't focus on its history of incompatibility
  with Linux. Also, leaving the lid closed for a long period of time
  (two hours or so) while still using the computer (I use VGA external
  monitor) may cause all USB devices to stop functioning. Even more
  occasionally, replugging a single device may cause all other USB
  devices to work.
