KDE4 "When lid closed" event problem

Hi,

i'm using updated Arch Linux system with KDE4. My problem is, that KDE Power Manager does not hear on lid close event. I can choose everything from menu (suspend, lock screen, ...) but it does nothing. After closing the lid, system follows "Do nothing" option.

Few weeks ago, everything was fine - closing the lid raised sleep action.
Last week i set up "Do nothing" option for lid close event and today i'm not capable to return sleep option back.

I can sleep computer from menu or with 'systemd sleep' command. I have everything commented out in /etc/systemd/logind.conf.

Thank you for help.

EDIT: I have another problem. When I turn off AC adapter, status icon of batery does not change. My notebook thiks, that is still on-line on AC. Something is wrong and i'm afraid that is HW issue.

EDIT: I have found some warnings in dmesg. What does it mean?

Don't buy Samsung ultrabooks. They seems to be only Win8 compatible
