    I've just finished a lot of work on acpi events (GPEs). These drive
    things like the lid switch and device wake capabilities. If your system
    works for suspend/resume, please make sure it still behaves correctly over
    multiple suspend/resume cycles. If you're feeling adventurous, try the
    new wake sysctls:

    sysctl dev | grep wake

    By setting them to 0 or 1, you can enable/disable a device waking the
    system. Note that non-ACPI devices are still not properly hooked in here
    so they won't work (i.e. sio or modems). But you can change the lid
    independently of the sleep button, for example.

    Also, please be sure that your system still powers off correctly when
    shutdown. I may have fixed some systems that didn't power off correctly
    as well.

    Thanks,
    -Nate
