Hi.

I'm trying to deploy a slave nameserver on a laptop to sit at somebodies home.
It runs NSD and other than salving and serving queries it polls an NTP
server and that's it. It doesn't run X11 ...
Functionally it all works and I'm looking at keeping this thing quiet
and dark so it's cheap and un-annoying.

I have apmd_flags="-C" which according to apm is doing its job.
The fan kicks in every now and then for a second or so but it's not too bad.
I've set the options in wsconsctl.conf to blank the screen which also
works but this thing has I think what's called "a backlight" which
means the screen constantly glows. I'm planning to go set this thing
up, let the screen blank and close the lid.
I'd like to remove the backlight and the eerie glow.
I'm unfamiliar with laptops but I've tried zzz and apm -S both kill
the backlight which is great but network functions cease, yes I did
not know that.
I also can't seem to bring it back up form either state short of a
power cycle but that's moot.

Is there a way to turn off the backlight?
Is there anything else I can do to sedate this machine?

TIA

apm -Pv
