If you right click the power manager applet, there are three choices
for behavior to set for closing the lid. The choices are under the
actions tab. I just set mine to do nothing. The other choices are
hibernate or suspend. Suspend was chosen by default.

OK, thanks, I hadn't tried right clicking the power status icon; I also
found access to the preferences in System|Preferences|More
Preferences|Power Management.
To get extra entries in these dialogs, I guess it would be best to
submit enh requests at
gnome-power.sourceforge.net, rather than
buzilla.redhat ?
