It is part of the acpid package. You can bind events to commands by adding a config file in /etc/acpi/events. On the other hand, I believe this will be handled by HAL sometime in the future. I think I saw something about it on the HAL mailing list. If you want to go the acpi rout, you may want ot read the acpid man page.
