Perhaps it is sleep. . . the screen goes blank and I can't recover so I
am not sure what it is. I run pretty light -- windowmaker and acpid. I
have no acpi events or actions defined for the lid. If I kill acpid the
machine still halts when the lid closes -- I did just notice that
[kacpid] is still running -- leaving me to believe it is something in
the kernel. . . .
