I'd assume that gnome itself reacted to the lid close event, and gnome itself triggered the suspend. I myself use a different approach: as I travel even at work a lot with my laptop, from one meeting room to another I never want to close the lid and notice that the laptop suspended if just about 20sec later I am going to open it again. Therefor I opted for doing it manually. The thinkpads I use have a Fn-F4 keyboard shortcut that triggers (by default in debian) the suspend. So if I want to suspend it takes me just this one combo to do so. Regards, Andre -- Andre Klärner
