Like Troy I changed the GConf setting, since this is required for 'Do nothing' since this commit:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/svn-commits-list/2009-July/msg05558.html

with the comment:

/* we only add do nothing in the GUI if the user has explicitly specified this in GConf */

This means that it is only possible to set 'Do nothing' in GConf not in the GUI, but it will be shown i GUI.

With command line I did this:

gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac "nothing"
