Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome
I often use my laptop with the lid closed, by SSHing in and having the
application windows displaying on the 23-inch monitor of my PC. Now with
Oneiric a problem occured. All the sophisticated, fine-grained
configuration tools were thrown away in favor of the much more
simplified apps in the new GNOME System Settings (I successfully
defended system-config-printer with the following Blueprint/UDS session:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-system-config-
printer-vs-gnome-3-control-center) and so there is no way any more to
select what should happen when closing the laptop's lid (should be under
Power) and this is currently hard-coded to suspend the laptop. One
also cannot set the screen to never turn off (under Screen). Can we
get these controls back?
