Ahhh... let me recant that. I think that error came from me commenting out the shutdown command in the powerd button script, when I put the shutdown command back the laptop actually shutdown on a power button press but there is no indication that the lid switch event is happening. I will try some more debug to see what I can find.

I want to script a few things when the lid opens but the script is not firing. I do have: [ 1.160133] acpilid0 at acpi0 (LID, PNP0C0D): ACPI Lid Switch in dmesg so it looks like the kernel knows about the lid switch, just seems like no events are delivered. -- Brett Lymn "We are were wolves", "You mean werewolves?", "No we were wolves, now we are something else entirely", "Oh"
