Oh, this is probably systemd.   I glossed over the word "laptops" in
the beginning of your e-mail, sorry.

systemd (by default) doesn't put idle systems to sleep, but it does
put closed laptops to sleep when no desktop power management system is
active (e.g. when KDM is running).

Just set HandleLidSwitch=ignore in /etc/systemd/logind.conf to turn it
off.  See `man logind.conf` for more information.
