I call this on lid events which works even when X isn't running. :-)

notify 10 {
        match "system"          "ACPI";
        match "subsystem"       "Lid";
        action "/etc/rc.lid $notify";
};

/etc/rc.lid:
#!/bin/sh
# deal with lid switch events

if [ "x$1" = x0x00 ]; then
        /usr/bin/logger -t Lid Closed at `/bin/date`
        /sbin/sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.active=0
else
        /usr/bin/logger -t Lid Opened at `/bin/date`
        /sbin/sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.active=1
fi
