Title:
  Kernel 2.6.32-19 ignores lid status

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: linux-image

  Kernel 2.6.32-19 ignores the lid status which is bad if you use your
  notebook with a docking station and an external display. Kernel
  2.6.32-18 or older and the mainline kernels handle a closed laptop lid
  like a disconnected LVDS display. Since kernel 2.6.32-19 lucid boots
  up with a wrong diplay resolution because both displays a switched on
  even if the lid is closed. The displays are mirrored and switched to
  1152x864 instead of their native resolutions. This leads to a blurry
  and warped GDM.
