Hello,

Looking at rolling out some sort of ACPI script environment for acpid. 
Is there any way that the ACPI system determines exposes what state the 
subsystem is in.

                        # go to X now
                        /usr/bin/chvt 7         
         
                        # restore the keyboard
                        /sbin/kbdrate -r 30 -d 250 < /dev/console
                else
                        logger -p daemon.info "ACPI lid: lid is closed"
                        touch $CLOSEDFILE

                        # go to a tty1 first
                        /usr/bin/chvt 1         
     

Though its probably obvious, but all the chvt stuff is for my laptop and
is assuming you are in X first-- which is an ok assumption for me. 
Closing the lid at a console with my script above won't work right.
