[solved] Suspend on closed lid

Hi,
I want my netbook (Wind) to automagically suspend when I close the lid, I got laptop-mode and pm-utils installed, everything works great, but I can't get it to suspend instead of just turning off the screen.
The ACPI event "lm_lid..sh" just calls "laptop_mode auto", I tried to overwrite it with "/usr/sbin/pm-suspend" but to no effect. I also couldn't find anything in the laptop-mode config where I could set something like that.
