Hello community,
I have a strange problem with Xscreensaver and hibernate. I'm using a Thinkpad X60t and when closing the lid the laptop hibernates fine. But when reopening the lid, it shows the desktop shortly and after a second Xscreensaver launches and asks my pass. But before I'm able to type in the pass, the laptop goes to hibernate again. So I have to close the lid again, reopen it and then Xscreensaver works as expected. The problem is 100% reproducible, the first reopening of the lid always leads to another hibernate and the second always works.
The problem appeared some weeks (maybe a month) ago, earlier everything was fine. I don't really know how to debug this issue, if any information is needed, please ask.
Thanks,
PhotonX

The very worst thing you can do with free software is to download it, see that it doesn't work for some reason, leave it, and tell your friends that it doesn't work. - Tuomas Lukka

Did you try setting the "HandleXXX" values to ignore as described here?

Thanks for your reply! I tried to set HandleLidSwitch to ignore and the result is that hibernate stopped working at all, so when closing the lid the screen gets locked and that's it. After unlocking I get a libnotify popup about missing permissions for energy management.
edit: Oh, I realize that the problem comes from the concole-kit being replaced recently. Will edit my .xinitrc and report back.

Console-kit issue solved in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151930 After this hibernate worked as expected again. Thanks for the hint!
