How can I configure a Debian-based distro (Kubuntu) not to wake when
the lid switch is activated? The laptop in question is a Dell Inspiron

The wonderful engineers at Dell used a plastic so thin that when
pressure is placed on the lid when closed, it trips the switch. I have
found the machine idling with no airflow in my bag several times
already.
Thanks in advance.
if i understand your question correct, none of the answers given, will
help you, because you want to _disable_ the wakeup and not edit the
events _after_ wakeup.
on my systems there is in the proc directory a file called:
/proc/acpi/wakeup
which shows which devices will wakeup the laptop is suspend.
and i don't have much documentation .. but for my thinkpad there is this
article which should work on every laptop with sane acpi.

---------------- cut ----------------
There is a /proc/acpi/wakeup file here. (t42p). Currently shows: Device Sleep state Status
cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
LID 3 * enabled
SLPB 3 * enabled
PCI0 3 disabled
UART 3 disabled
PCI1 4 disabled
USB0 3 disabled
USB1 3 disabled
AC9M 4 disabled
and ..
echo " LID" > /proc/acpi/wakeup
should disable the LID from waking up

but on the site are some comments.. so reading is reommended.
