acpi-support has nothing to do with the lid event policy on the desktop; the dropped /etc/acpi scripts were used *only* when on the console. If hibernate isn't working, that seems to be a problem with upower.

All Settings/Power "When the lid is closed" is set to Hibernate. Changing it to "Suspend "triggers suspend, while on "Hibernate" has no function. Creating configuration and scripts in /etc/acpi solves the problem. Hint: this functionality must work out of the box....
