Details

When closing the laptop's lid, the laptop does not suspend, although configured.
Suspending worked as designed until systemd was upgraded to version 211-1.
No desktop environment is installed, but xorg (i3-wm) is running.
( An external monitor is connected. )

- successful suspend using "# systemctl suspend"
- successful suspend when pressing the suspend key (Fn-F4)
- opening the laptop lid will wake the laptop up
- "# cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state" shows "state:closed" and "state:open" correctly

Systemd reports the lid switch and lid open in the journal, but nothing happens in between.
Mär 18 18:09:37 systemd-logind[488]: Lid closed.
Mär 18 18:09:43 systemd-logind[488]: Lid opened.

package versions:
systemd 211-1
linux 3.13.6-1

/etc/systemd/logind.conf
..
HandleSuspendKey=suspend
..
This task depends upon

This is documented in release notes. Your external screen inhibits suspend.

I have the exactly these symptoms without any external monitor connected. Systemd 210 works fine. Systemd 211 does not shut on laptop lid close. Journalctl reports the lid closed and opened --- but no suspend. Otherwise, invoking "systemctl suspend" works just fine.

I am running openbox. No desktop manager installed. Polkit is installed. (Apcid is not installed, so no conflicts there.)

@madalu, what does your /etc/systemd/logind.conf file look like?

I have the same behavior (no suspend, but systemd sees lid open/close events) on Gnome 3.10.2, no external screens or other inputs connected. acpid disabled, logind.conf is the default file that is installed with systemd, i.e. all options are commented out.
