hi there,

a couple of days ago, after seeing the cvs commit
for initiating suspend upon closing the lid,
i have asked to question how to revert this, as
i fairly often close the lid but prefer no action
taken.  as my netbook dies a horrible death
on wakeup (and possibly at suspend itself) the change
was very counterproductive, me forgetting all the
time i can't close the lid.

so theo later committed that closing the lid does nothing
so far.  a sensible thing i think.  but now if i press the
power button, instead of shutdown, i get suspend.

until there is a mechanism for controlling what action
is executed on what event (lid, power button) in
whatever way (sysctl's or maybe some /etc/acpi scripts)
would it be possible to revert the original functionality
of the power button?
