Comment (by leavengood):

 Actually I just read some of the
 [http://www.bebits.com/talkback/2938?page=1 comments on BeBits for your
 ATI driver] which mention backlight issues on this and other chipsets, and
 you said that maybe ACPI is controlling the backlight. Maybe with recent
 fixes and improvements to ACPI it is possible to control the backlight on
 these chipsets?

 Before you spend too much time looking at this I could investigate that
 first. Maybe we need some sort of ACPI backlight utility first though.
