Sorry for the delay...
I've an Intel graphic card
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
After some other investigation I will try to summarise the problem, because 
I've seen different behaviour with dim enabled/disabled 

With dim enabled:
1)leave pc idle
2)when the monitor goes black wait a few minutes
3)move the mouse/keyboard but the screen remains black, even if you change 
screen brightness using the special key  (Fn-F6)


With dim disabled:
1)leave pc idle
2)when the monitor goes black wait a few minutes
3)move the mouse/keyboard but the screen remains black
4)if you change increase screen brightness using the special key  (Fn-F6) the 
back light turn on and I can use the pc 


Note: if I leave the pc idle for about an hour with even with dim disabled I 
cannot any more restore the back light

Feel free to ask me clarification if my description is not very clear...
