If this happens after the lid has been shut, we read "LCD off" from the register and store that in the driver. Once the lid is opened, the backlight turns on, but any key press that would awaken the blanked console will switch the backlight off again. The workaround so far was to use the "display config toggle" Fn key combo - once if no external display is attached, otherwise as often as required to restore the desired display setup. The following patch fixes the issue at least for the LCD-only case, with no external monitor attached. Other display setup permutations are pending further testing, but so far I can guarantee at least no negative change in behaviour, if any at all.
