I've updated from Xubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 and I would get random i3 crushes with lightlocker. After disabling lightlocker, I noticed that i3 would exit cleanly every time I closed the lid, with the following message:
i3: No usable outputs available
I've never seen this before, any clues as to what it might be ?
I've had this issue also;
Everything was fine with Xubuntu 13, the upgrade to 14.04 causes i3 to crash each time the lid is closed. This is on a thinkpad R500.
no mention of lid it /etc/acpi/events, although acpi_listen Does register the lid opening and closing.
My presumption is that normally closing the lid would send a SIGSTOP much akin to what was alluded to in issue #1489 and #926.
I'd like to see what /etc/acpi/events/lid would look like normally, and what scripts it calls

It seems that closing the lid turns off not only the backlight but the whole display. Is there any file in `/etc/acpi/event` that has *lid* in its name or mentions *lid* in it on your laptop?
I only have directory called `/etc/acpi/events`, not `/etc/acpi/event`. There is no file that mentions a lid, the only (somewhat) relevant file I can see is lenovo-undock
