How can I tell Ubuntu to do nothing when I close my laptop lid?

In the office I use my notebook with an external 22" monitor. So I don't need the notebooks lcd and I would like to simply close the lid. But everytime I do this Ubuntu switches the resolution. How can I avoid this?

What graphic card do you have? It depends on the card, which tool you can use. — bdr529, Apr 06 '11 at 10:26
