Still broken in Intrepid. When the lid is closed, the external monitor
also gets turned off, even if the internal display is already disabled
by xrandr.

Expected (default!) behaviour:
- external monitor is connected, lid is being closed
- internal display is turned off, external monitor remains active
- move mouse or hit a key
- internal display stays off
- lid is being opened
- internal display is turned on

Actual (default!) behaviour:
- external monitor is connected, lid is being closed
- internal display and external monitor are being turned off
- move mouse or hit a key
- both displays are turned on, even though the lid is still closed

This is very annoying, especially since bingnet's suggestion to set
power management to "do nothing" does not only keep the external monitor
on, but the internal display as well (as I would have expected).

Any chance of this being fixed?
