Title:
  10de:11bc [Dell Precision M6700] With external monitor plugged, this
  system cannot be suspended by closing the lid

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  CID: 201205-11042 Dell Precision M6700

  When external monitor plugged (tested with D-Sub / HDMI)
  This system cannot be suspended by closing the lid. 

  After the lid was closed, both display on external monitor and laptop screen were off, but system was not suspended.
  Power LED was not blinking, and if you move the external mouse with lid closed, the external display will be back.

  However, the suspend button in the system menu works fine.

  This issue only exist with external monitor plugged, suspend works
  fine without the external monitor.

  Tested before and after system update, with and without nVidia
  proprietary driver (Recommended / Experimental-310)
