Matthew, 
The ACPI spec does not mention restoring the LCD backlight 
and video modes on resume from S3 because those functions 
have nothing at all to do with ACPI. 
 
However, independent of the ACPI spec, Intel's official guidance to 
BIOS writers is that they should restore the video backlight 
on resume form S3.  Windows doesn't require this because 
it always has a graphics driver.  Linux, however, does 
require this, since it may or may not have a graphics 
driver running. 
 
Vendors are welcome to listen or ignore Intel's guidance. 
However, if they want to ship Linux with a Centrino logo, 
they must listen, else they'll fail the brand compliance test. 
Of course, the number of laptop vendors that actually ship Linux 
installed at the factory and get the logo today is very small -- 
but hopefully it will grow.
