Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
Ubuntu/edgy:
Xorg 7.1 has a known bug, which happens when the screen has gone to off state because of power saving features of X.org.
https:/
Then, if any ACPI event, such as unplugging the power cord, or battery status update, comes, the backlight will turn back on.
This will burn the displays of people and consume a lot of energy.
Please backport 7.2 to Ubuntu edgy when it comes available.

I'm using Feisty. This bug seem to be fixed only partially. After booting a hibernated system the screen still reacts to ACPI events and the backlight turns back on.
