Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.1.0-16

I am running woody on a notebook with this videocard:
ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage LT Pro AGP-133 (rev dc)

While I got fewer troubles with this card with each new
release of the X-packages I now have a problem which seems
to be new:

When the notebook is inactive for a longer time, the LCD-panel's
backlight is not restored correctly after resuming from the
X-screensaver (I mean the default screen-blanking of X after a while of 
inactivity) . I have not configured any other screensaver.

What actually happens is that when I move the mouse or hit a key
after a long time of "black-screen) the panels nacklight shorty 
lightens an then falls back to black. I think that its just the state
of the backlight which is handled incorrectly here. Interestingly
this happens only when a really long time passed after the
xserver blanked the screen. 

Branden, if its unclear what I want to say, please contact me!

Thanks,

Olaf

(possibly this is a known bug which is already fixed in 4.2?)
