I already wrote 2 mails that I have use for the LID switch status file and that I don't know how to handle its absence. However, they seem to be dropped on the floor somewhere :-). BTW I have written a small C program which uses dev_acpi module and evaluates an object, which I'm using to evaluade the _LID method, thus reading the status of the switch. However, I think that this should be done by the kernel. So at least, if the buttons allow to read their status, I'm voting for keeping the possibility to read it.
