[Bug 41994] Re: closed Laptop Lid to reliably keep Backlight off

[MatthiasA]

I found a workaround in german from 2008 on this page:
http://soltano.blogspot.com/2008/03/hp-compaq-6720s-der-tragdie-
zweiter.html   He used the vbetool dpms off command.    I did not try
it.    Maybe someone finds it helpful.

I tried Mackkies workaround (commenting out all lines in the
/etc/acpi/events/videobtn file). It did not work for me.
