Sound very much like hibernating....

How about writing a litle bash script, that writes every couple of seconds to a file/syslog?
That way you can verify wether or not your system is still alive after closing the lid.
Steps further depend on the result.

No need of script. The link I posted helped me. Now the laptop does not 
hibernate when the lid is closed.
