The sad part is that Fedora will be one of the first distributions to use gnome3 as default and it will take the beating for choices made upstream.
What there not have been written a lot about, is how to change the lid default action, so here it comes
Setting Laptop lid close action on ac:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac "<setting>"
<setting> ::= nothing|blank|suspend|hibernate|shutdown
Setting Laptop lid close action on battery:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_battery "<setting>"
<setting> ::= nothing|blank|suspend|hibernate|shutdown
Edit:
In Fedora 15 alpha you have to use
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power lid-close-ac-action "<setting>"
and
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power lid-close-battery-action "<setting>"
Update:
Here is a shell script to easy change the settings, just run an select from the gui. It was kindly contributed by Kevin DeKorte
