From https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=595644

1. Boot up with an external monitor attached to your desktop
2. Close the laptop's lid
3. The main display (by default) is the laptop's monitor, which is not accessible

Instead we should detect that the lid is closed, and turn off the internal monitor instead.

Hi, while looking for a related mis-behaviour, I found this request. Will this be considered for GNOME 3.x line?

Best Regards

I'm pretty certain this was fixed with Federico's work on the XRandR plugin for GNOME 3.4.
