** Description changed:

+ [ Description ]
+ 
  With the NVIDIA driver, nvidia-384, the system will not sleep when the
  lid is closed due to gnome_rr_output_is_builtin_display incorrectly
- returning false. I have linked to an upstream bug, which also has
- patches fixing the issue.
+ returning false.
+ 
+ [ Fix ]
+ 
+ mutter provides a more reliable API to get the "type" of a connector
+ (output). The fix switches gnome-desktop to use this API instead of
+ looking at the output's name - which can be anything apparently.
+ 
+ [ QA ]
+ 
+ If you have an affected system - an NVIDIA-using laptop which doesn't
+ sleep if the lid is closed: install the update, and check if the laptop
+ does now sleep.
+ 
+ [ Regression potential ]
+ 
+ Changes the heuristic-based scheme for detecting if a display is "built-
+ in" to a method based on the reported connector type. There's a low
+ chance that this could be wrong for some machines which were right
+ previously.
