Public bug reported: Looks very much like #22989. In my case it worked perfectly in Hardy, but appears to be broken in Intrepid. I'm on a HP nc8000. (I looked for a /var/log/acpid but couldn't find one; maybe acpid logs to another file in more recent releases? Anyway, nothing seems to be logged in syslog or messages either.)
