Description of problem: My Lenovo notebook B50 shuts down every time I close the lid. The notebook generally has a problem with shutting down and rebooting with Linux. It freezes. So I have to hold the power button for 5 seconds in order to reboot or simply shutdown. I bypassed this problem in Ubuntu by disabling a sleep mode when the lid is closed, but I don't see such setting in Fedora. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.4.2 Additional info: Intel N2830 Intel Bay Trail 2 gigabytes of RAM
Finally, I found the solution to the problem. As it turned out, my BIOS firmware was obsolete. I have never updated BIOS before. I was afraid I would turn the notebook into a "brick", but luckily it was easy and went well. I went to support section of Lenovo's official site and downloaded the 9CCN35WW.exe file. But it requires at least Windows 7 with the first service pack, otherwise Windows 7 says "The bios in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. Please contact your system vendor for an updated bios." The BIOS updated from 9CCN26WW(v2.04) to 9CCN35WW(V3.01).
