Ubuntu: Disable Laptop open lid command

It's been a while since I've had this problem. When I kept my Fujitsu lifebook in my backpack, it sometimes wakes up from suspend/hibernate mode. This happens in Ubuntu & Windows.

So it must be the mechanism of the notebook lid.

To disable it in Ubuntu, it's easy:

After chmod 666 /proc/acpi/wakeup

The command is: sudo echo "LID " > /proc/acpi/wakeup

It works. Now supposedly it should work automatically on boot by placing the command in /etc/rc.local
