Comment 19 for bug 41994

This issue is still present in Hardy Alpha 3 on a Dell Inspiron 1520 (Intel X3100 graphics card).

I want my laptop to do some big downloads over night. I set it to work, close the lid, and go to bed. Seconds later, the backlight comes back on. It is very difficult to go to sleep in a room with thin crack of eerie light emanating from a closed laptop. More to the point, it can't be doing the laptop much good, either.

This issue remains even if the screensaver is set to blank screen - the pixels go dark but the backlight comes back on!
