Yep, on my IBM ThinkPad 770Z and A31P, sysctl -w hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=NONE works fine but on the Dell Inspiron 8200, it doesn't work at all. The screen doesn't turn off and the machine suspends and then when you resume the machine, the screen appears to not update but the commands you type on the keyboard still make it.
