Hi, Feel free to file a new bug as I think it was introduced after gnome 
was completely removed from latest release of Ubuntu.

Title:
  [Regression] Closing laptop lid should not blank external monitor

Status in Gnome Powermanager:
  New
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Fix Committed
Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-power-manager” source package in Natty:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Power Management Preferences, I noticed that there is no longer a
  "Do Nothing" option for "When laptop lid is closed". This is very
  inconvenient since I like to keep the lid closed and use an external
  monitor. Obviously "suspend", "hibernate", and "shutdown" are bad.
  "Blank screen" blanks BOTH screens, not just the laptop screen.

  I seem to recall a "Do Nothing" option in earlier versions. Either
  that or the "Blank screen" option only blanked the laptop internal
  screen.

  Thanks!
