Description of problem:

X windows exits and restarts when the laptop lid is closed.

This issue is acknowledged with Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/edgy/+source/xorg-server/+bug/61746

Furthermore, the issue is acknowledged as an xorg problem and has been resolved:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8776

However, despite using the latest FC6 udpates, I am still affected by this
problem.  Thus my problem is actually that this update to xorg has not been
incorporated into fc6 updates!


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

I am using xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-47.8.fc6.  Looking at the source in
xorg-x11-server-1.1.1-47.8.fc6.src.rpm, the issues exists with
xorg-server-1.1.1/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/lnx_acpi.c and I could not see a
patch for it...


How reproducible:

Every time.


Steps to Reproduce:

Close laptop lid whilst X running.

  
Actual results:

X windows exits and restarts.


Expected results:

X windows does not exit and selected power-saving behaviour occurs.
