This bug seems to affect me in 10.10 (I have not tried to reproduce it
yet in natty but I can in a few minutes). xset dpms force off will
stay off for 30-60s before coming on again. sudo radeontool light off
fails without an error. If I let the backlight turn off on it's own, it
seems to stay off

This was solved by installing the ATI Drivers 9.6 from ATI and installing using
the link and choosing the one for your situation.

Nope, with fglrx 8.09 the backlight goes off perfectly. With radeon
(xserver-xorg-video-ati 1.6.8.0-1 on ubuntu Hardy) the backlight does
not go off. I can simulate it by pressing the lid button of my laptop.
What happens is that my screen goes off (backlight is off for a sec or
so and I don't see
This seems to be fixed now?

Try typing the following command in a terminal:
xgamma -gamma 0.75
If that doesn't work you need to install xgamma from the repos.
I have posted my own solution here on setting it up:

Thanks for the fix Sascha, but I just tried it and it doesn't work for
me.
My problem is slightly different to yours in that my backlight *always*
stays on - it never turns off, even for a few seconds. When it should
turn off it actually gets pretty bright white in a weird kind of grid
pattern
Confirmed, bug not fixed. Workaround posted here:

This is still not fixed for me, now on Gutsy (having reinstalled from
scratch several times along the way) and backlight still does not switch
off when Xscreensaver tries to trigger it or when I run xset.

Any news of a fix for this?
As with bug 37364, 'xset dpms force off' clears the display but does not
turn it off.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-
video-i810/+bug/37364/
I have to use 'sudo vbetool dpms off' to actually switch off the
backlight.
This is troublesome,

Suspect this is more general than just package 'xserver-xorg-video-ati
(Ubuntu)' - I have a Toshiba Portege with S3 Savage and the LCD
backlight never turns off.
This may be related to the general X.org 7.1 ACPI bug found recently -
