You can read the keyboard slider status from /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/slide/state
It also seems that there's a DBus message at /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_slide, org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.

In other words, jgallen23, you'll have to read the status from sysfs and forget DBus unless you're only interested in status changes.

I got it working, if anybody wants me to post the code, let me know
Is it possible to run a command or script which returns whether it thinks the keyboard is open or not?
