Title:
  Laptop LCD not switched off when closed and external monitor is
  attached

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I have an external monitor attached to my laptop (via VGA in my
  test case), the laptop display is not switched off when I close the
  lid. However, main screen is switched to external monitor.

  I played around with opening and closing the lid then and suddenly I
  found the internal LCD display going off when I opened it and then
  both displays switched off. Only way to restore was reboot.

  Display is not mirrored.
