sleep/suspend/hibernate vs ACPI


I have already posted on this matter. Didn't receive any feedback so far.

The issue is related to putting the system (DELL XPS15Z - Scientific Linux 6) to sleep/suspend/hibernate when the lid is closed or when the 30 min. I set on Gnome power-manager elapse.

After some search on the subject, there are chances this can be handled via acpi.

#acpi_listen:
can't open socket /var/run/acpid.socket: No such file or directory
#tail -f /var/log/messages.log
tail: cannot open `/var/log/messages.log' for reading: No such file or directory

Perhaps acpi is off?

In /boot/grub/grub.conf , I turned acpi=on.
At reboot, I lost access to the keyboard. Luckily, I could log from another kernel boot and turn it off.

Any thoughts, ideas on what's going? How can this be handled?

Cheers.
