From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

yes I talked to the developers and well I guess I am supposed to figure it out myself but I don't know how so I am basically seeking help here this is the bug report: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/28942

I guess I should post my own pr but I have no idea how to say to udev that the key specified as d8 is actually the lid being closed and the key specified as d7 is actually the lid being open

basically yes I am a noob and a helpful response will be just a documentation page to show me where can I begin to fix this problem

ID_INPUT_SWITCH (Line 88 here) appears to be an option that is excluded from the list on the libinput page.
I went through some similar issues with PostmarketOS on a Chromebook. The libinput quirks and udev rules are highly undocumented and unstable right now. You have to piece together information from existing configurations and poking around in the libinput repo.

update so after realising I have ACPI: button: The lid device is not compliant to SW_LID. in my logs I found a couple of bug reports in the kernel https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192231 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202421

so I guess this can be as well a kernel issue

so I made a bug report in the arch linux bug reporter: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2119116

so yeah I guess and I hope someone understand the problem fix it with udev or the linux kernel directly or at least give me the steps to do so anyway yeah that's all

and I guess if this plan didn't work I have to learn C to fix the issue
