Thinkpad [1] : Twitchy lid close switch

Hi Folks, It’s been a long time since I participated i n the group, hope everyone’s well! I have Arch installed on a Thinkpad T440s; it’s mostly worked well for quite a while, but I’m running into some problems; separating them out into individual emails for clarity. The simplest issue is a very sensitive lid close sensor. The sensor is inside the lid hinge, and it often registers a state change when I adjust the screen angle. So, two questions: - any other THinkpad users to there seeing this, and if so, have you figured out a hardware fix? - failing that, does anyone have a suggestion for a software fix – say, a custom script that systemd can run as a hook before the LidSwitch event fires? I don’t know much about the systemd power management features. I noticed the “HoldoffTimeoutSec” variable in /etc/systemd/logind.conf, and currently have it set to 30s (cf. https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/logind.conf.html). But it hasn’t yet solved my problem. As usual, thanks so much for your help! Matt
