Bug Description
When i close the lid on my Acer Aspire One (D250) the screen only goes black. It doesn't matter if I have activated that it should go to sleep or hibernate. It lights up when I open the lid again. (Mint 9 RC)
However it goes to hibernate (I think it is) when I disconnect the power supply (even if the battery is fitted and fully charged)
It was the same in Mint 8 ME when I disconnected power cable. Connecting the cable is no problem.

Hi tux-seven,
Have you tried the LM 9 Final release?
I am still looking into a more permanent repair for this issue but until it is resolved I would try opening a terminal and trying this command for suspend:
sudo pm-suspend
you could possibly make a custom shortcut to do this task for you temporarily.
As for hibernation try:
sudo pm-hibernate
I found this same issue with Debian linux as well, so it doesn't appear to be a Linux Mint 9 only issue...I will keep looking into this to see if there is a solution to assist your Acer Aspire One (D250) hardware :) I will also elevate this to the debian launchpad to see if anyone there has resolved this issue as well.
