Public bug reported:

When I close the lid of my laptop, gnome-power-manager always throttles the 
screensaver (as indicated by the following output):
$ gnome-screensaver --debug --no-daemon |& grep -i throttle
[listener_add_ref_entry] gs-listener-dbus.c:716 (10:53:12):      adding 
throttler from Power screensaver for reason 'Laptop lid is closed' on 
connection :1.18
[listener_check_throttle] gs-listener-dbus.c:353 (10:53:12):     Checking for 
throttle
[list_ref_entry] gs-listener-dbus.c:279 (10:53:12):      throttler: Power 
screensaver for reason: Laptop lid is closed
[gs_listener_set_throttle] gs-listener-dbus.c:340 (10:53:12):    Changing 
throttle status: 1

However, this should not happen when external displays are connected, as
it is the case for me.

1) 
Description:    Ubuntu 11.04

3)
Screensaver should activate on external display, even when laptop lid closed.

4) 
Screen is blanked only due to throttling.
