Bug Description

Running Oneiric Alpha 3 on a netbook. During testing, I need to set power management to simply blank screen on lid close, not suspend or hibernate. However, the power configuration tool (gnome-control-center power) now provides no means to change behaviour on lid action.

In Natty and before, I could select the behaviour for lid close, now that ability is missing.
