On the flip side, I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 and I want it to *stop*
suspending when I close the lid. Under Windows, I can get it to not
suspend on the close of the lid, but I can't find a BIOS setting from
the setup to control this, and the effect of the corrected behavior
under Windows doesn't "carry over" into Linux . . .
