Bug#803256: laptop goes to sleep during log in to gnome

[Brent S. Elmer]

Package: gdm3
Version: 3.18.0-2
Severity: normal

The following problem just recently started happening after upgrading to gdm3
3.18.0-2.  I have a Lenovo w540 laptop in a dock with two external monitors
connected.  I boot with the laptop lid closed.  My two external monitors come
up and the login screen is on the right side external screen.  I select my user
and enter the password and log in.  Both of the external monitors go black and
go into standby mode.  I hear the fan on the laptop go off and it appears that
the laptop has gone to sleep.  I lift the laptop lid and the laptop wakes up
and the monitors wake up and come on.  I have been using this setup for a while
and this did not use to happen.
