Thank you Bhasker. Commenting out the line in question did in fact prevent the laptop from going into standby when I _close_ the lid. However, the machine still wakes from standby when I _open_ the lid. So this is not a solution to my problem. I looked in the BIOS thinking that there may be an ACPI disable option there, but there is none. -- Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com http://gibberish.co.il א-ב-ג-ד-ה-ו-ז-ח-ט-י-ך-כ-ל-ם-מ-ן-נ-ס-ע-ף-פ-ץ-צ-ק-ר-ש-ת ä-ö-ü-ß-Ä-Ö-Ü
