Folks

I've noticed that on multiple XO 1's with Build 20, 12.1.0 and FW Q2F13
that entering reboot from terminal then tapping on the x key to get into
OFW brings up a spurious "Lid switch is active - powering off in 8 seconds"
after the OK prompt appears.   The lid is indeed fully open, after all, I
am hitting the 'x' key, so I'm not sure how the machine thinks it's closed
:-)

"Type lid-off to disable this " at the OK prevents it from shutting off,
when I ent4er it in time, but I was wondering if anyone else is
experiencing this symptom.

When entering reboot from OFW, I have never seen the spurious message.
 Likewise, on a cold-boot from power off state, I never see the message.

Cheers

KG
