That_is_ the default behaviour - the laptop should do nothing at all when the lid is closed. I know of no particular hardware/BIOS that sets a sleep action upon lid closure. It is only altered by userspace tools/daemons like for eg. when using a DE.
I know, in my case its acpi-eeepc-generic that, by default, suspends the system when closing the lid.
But thats not the point. What I tried to say is, I do have an Intel video card and experienced problems as mentioned in the original post. I didn't have to suspend the system but just close the screen lid (turning it off), then after opening the lid again the screen would remain blank/off occasionally, no matter what I tried.
However, it didn't happen to me in the last month, IIRC there was a kernel update, I think this has resolved my issues.
