My Dell Inspiron laptop running KDE suspends to RAM automatically when

sometimes I need to walk from place to place with the machine and I'd
like to close the lid without suspending. Is there a script that I can
run to tell the computer not to suspend in response to ACPI events (or
more specifically, the lid switch) for the next 60 seconds? Thanks in
advance.
I do not know the solution to your problem.
But first of all is it advisable to move a computer while it is running? You
can induce a lot of vibration into the electrical/mechanical components
(hard drive failure comes to my mind) while walking. I would not do that if
I were you.

I, too, am interested in the answer, if there is one. I am thinking of
using the Asus eee (read "no hard drive") for processing in a robot. It
seems to me that if the robot is moving there is less likely to be a
problem if the lid is shut, than if it is open and able to wobble about.
