Here's what I get:

0
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid
(mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:~)$ echo $?
1

Though I'm questioning this last once since I tried to do:

pm-is-supported --suspend-hybrid && echo $?

and it never showed the RC, telling me the command itself failed.

Any ideas on what I should or could do to get suspend to work again?
It's a PITA to have to hard shutdown the laptop when I accidentally shut
the lid.

I hope this feature (closing lid causes suspend) can be switched off
somehow. It's a PITA even if suspend/hibernate works.

It can. Check out my blog post [1] about how to disable it.

Thanks!

Now, how did you configure the lid closing behaviour? If you made it
to cause suspend, you could try hibernate, and vice versa. In fact,
for testing purposes I'd leave the lid thing out altogether and try
pm-suspend or pm-hibernate from the command line.
