Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Turning off the screen when closing the laptop lid seems to work OK now (bug 449188 is probably resolved), but providing any input when the lid is closed cause the screen to unblank again. A good example is moving the mouse pointer.

It's another incarnation of the bug 22522.
