Do you still have the power plugged in?  Under F-14 my laptop doesn't go to
sleep when the lid is shut if the power is still connected - and then doesn't
go to sleep thereafter when the power is removed:-/

Also, do you have the appropriate kernel module loaded to capture events such
as lid closure?  I believe this is handled on ThinkPads, for example, by the
thinkpad_acpi module.
