Hey Adam,
Stupid questions, but you never know. Is acpid installed? Is it
running?
[nesscg@woman nesscg]$ ps -aux | grep acpid
root 3078 0.0 0.1 1516 528 ? S 07:35 0:00
/usr/sbin/acpid
It needs to run as root and should be set to start up in
/etc/init.d/acpid which you can set to run using the GUI `serviceconf`
or search this list on how to enable it with the text command.
It seemed from your post it was running. If that's the case you need to
set up the /etc/acpi/{actions,events} files which can be a pain. Just
google for someone else' files that run on a dell.
You can try this as well to test it.
# killall acpid
# acpid &
# tail -f /var/log/acpid
