Bug Description
Using a laptop with lid closed and an external monitor, you can boot.
Bios will show on the external monitor, as well as gdm when boot is finished.
You can then choose a user and type in your password, which is accepted.
But then, system goes to sleep (as the lid is cloesd I guess).
Going out of sleep with the power button shows the gnome shell.

Yes it appears that the default behaviour is to suspend when the lid is closed. And most surprisingly, Settings (3.24 at least) provides no option to change that.
WORKAROUND:
sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool
then in gnome-tweak-tool > Power > Suspend when laptop lid is closed = OFF
