I was able to get more information. Apparently the configuration is
through the /proc/acpi/wakeup file, which can be safely edited via
acpitool.

However, in order to enable lid wakeup, there would need to exist a
LID0 (or maybe just LID) entry in that file.  There is none.

Now, the question is who sets this up.  Is it the kernel or acpid?
Can this be configured?

Thanks,
