[ltp] T40 Powe Management Problem?

I am hoping someone out there has run into this: I have an IBM T40
running 2.6.18.3 with Debian testing. While on battery, if I close the
lid the machine goes into hibernate. I can find no script which is
invoking the acpi call -- in fact it occurs even after I stop acpid.I
think it's related to the settings in /proc/acpi, but I can't see
anything defining a lid action.

The setting in the bios for suspend on lid close has been disabled as well.

This shows up in the acpid logs:

[Tue Jun 26 12:18:12 2007] received event "button/lid LID 00000080 00000001"
[Tue Jun 26 12:18:12 2007] completed event "button/lid LID 00000080
00000001"
[Tue Jun 26 12:18:13 2007] received event "button/lid LID 00000080 00000002"
[Tue Jun 26 12:18:13 2007] completed event "button/lid LID 00000080
00000002"

This is really annoying as once the machine does into hibernate, I can't
get it to come out without rebooting or forcing suspend to disk and then
recover from that -- which hoses X.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks -- sjk
