Well *something* happened, but not what I was expecting. The machine
didn't suspend -- the PCMCIA Wi-Fi card remained on and I could see
network activity from the little flashing green activity indicator, I
could hear some disk activity, and the fan remained on. However, the
screen did blank, and when I opened the lid again it was a bit of a
struggle to get it to come on again (had to hit CRT/LCD a couple of
times, and ctrl-alt-F1 ctrl-alt-F7). When it did come on there was some
unpleasant flickering. As I was unsure of what other things the ACPI lid
event might have done I ended up rebooting.
