i was annoyed when systemd did a hostile takeover of power management on
my little debian laptop last year (largely because it caused a shutdown
in the middle of the ssh apt-get upgrade that installed the version
of systemd that perpetrated the takeover, and made it impossible to
remotely fix the problem)....but when i figured out what the problem was
(systemd taking over power mgmt) it wasn't hard to disable it.
the solution is to edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf and change it to have:
HandleLidSwitch=ignore
i have NFI why systemd's authors think that handling the lid switch has
*anything* at all to do with logind and i would have preferred systemd
not take over power mgmt at all, but it was pretty easy to undo the
damage in this particular case.
