[Bug 390816] Re: external monitor output is switched off when closing the laptop-lid when gnome-power-manager is set to blank screen on closing

 

I don't know to what extent it relates to this issue, but there is a
difference in behavior on my Lucid installation between pressing the
suspend-button, and closing the lid (with the system configured to
suspend on lid-close).

If I have a second monitor connected and active (configured with
something like xrandr --right-of ...) at the same time as the laptop LCD
display, then in the first case (button-press), resuming from suspend
correctly restores the display on both the LCD and external display.
However, in the second case (closing the lid), upon resume, the LCD's
resolution is changed to match the (lower-res) external monitor
resolution, and the screens become identical clones of each other.
