I'm seeing bad problem with N620c notebook (and have reports of more

2.6.7 behaves okay.

:> Some people would love to have the machine power up when they open
the lid! Wish my XE3 would do that!

This problem sounds like a wake GPE is enabled for the lid switch and that it has a _PRW that indicates it can wake the system from S5. If this is the case, just disabled the GPE.

:-). Well for some other people it powers up when they unplug AC
power, and *that* is nasty. I'd like my machine to stay powered down
when I tell it so.

This is likely a similar GPE problem. The GPE for the EC fires even in S5. I think the EC GPE should be disabled in the suspend method.
