Here's more info:
 Tried hooking up external monitor and booting from kernel 2.6.35-27 .. worked fine. laptop display shows, external monitor display shows. close lid, suspend, open lid, resume, everything still fine. BUT .. remove the external monitor (while still booted): laptop displays great. but then close lid -> suspend; open lid -> resume, and backlight briefly on but then gets turned off (display barely visible with bright flashlight). Hook up external monitor again, click System>preferences>monitors, and voila, display's backlight is turned on while mirroring displays with external monitor. This should be a very very easy fix .. could some one fix it please???
