Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

When I start my laptop (Acer Aspire 5734z-4836), I can see the bios, and I can 
see grub.
When gdm first starts, it is so black that it looks like the screen is off.
It still displays things on the screen; If you look at it at just the right 
angle it looks like maybe .4% brightness.
I thus deduced it shuts off the backlight.
Shutting the laptop lid and opening it again turns the backlight on.

I am using Natty Narwhal. I would very much like to not need to shut and
open my lid every time I use this operating-system, and to that end, I
will give all and any files required.
