Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
When I enable the option "Put display to sleep when inactive" (let's say put it to 10 minutes) then it does not work on my laptop (Dell E-5500) when put into docking station and connected (via HDMI cable) from there to an external monitor. The laptop lid is closed all the time and I solely work with the external monitor.
