Bug description:
  Recently this machine stopped suspending when the lid is closed. It
  suspends just fine from the menu, but when the lid is closed the
  backlight turns off for a few seconds then comes back on, but the
  machine never suspends. I can't find any indication in the logs that
  anything even attempted to initiate a suspend. Often after opening the
  lid the desktop has become completely unresponsive.

  I'm not sure that this is a bug in gnome-settings-daemon, but I've
  traced it up the stack far enough to know that the events are coming
  out of the kernel and that upower is detecting the lid status changes
  and sending out events on dbus.
