Same problems for me on a Dell Inspiron 8200 with NVIDIA GeForce Go 2 chipset,
i.e. the backlight does not turn off. I am using the latest xorg release from
Fedora Core 2 (xorg-x11-6.7.0-9) which is the only release I've used on this
laptop (only just installed FC2 on it). The output from lspci follow,

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 Go] (rev
b2) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
        Subsystem: Dell Computer Corporation: Unknown device 00d4
        Flags: bus master, VGA palette snoop, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 32,
IRQ 11
        Memory at fc000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
        Memory at e0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
        Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2
        Capabilities: [44] AGP version 2.0

Any idea when we might see a fix for this please?

Thanks, Alec
