Hello!

I notice when laptop display went off, it keep backlight on.

Technically speaking this:

# xset dpms force off

only set screen to black, without turning off LCD backlight.

My kernel has "acpi_backlight=vendor" which enables backlight control from
function keys and gnome recognize those actions by displaying popup with
current brightness level.

Everything seems works fine, I've been able to turn display off using:

# echo 0 > /sys/devices/pnp0/00:03/backlight/gmux_backlight/brightness

But still no luck with 'xset'.

axet at axet-laptop:~$ ls -al /sys/class/backlight/
total 0
