Hi,

when you do a 'sysctl hw.acpi' you'll see something like this:

hw.acpi.power_button_state: S5
hw.acpi.sleep_button_state: S1
hw.acpi.lid_switch_state: S1
hw.acpi.standby_state: S1
hw.acpi.suspend_state: S3
...

You can then assign the types 1-5 that acpiconf.8 talks about
(sysctl hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=S3).
I usually take S3 which works pretty well for me.
