Ok, I rm the xorg.conf file. After I start immediately the X server, the screen was visible but only in 800x600 resolution. I tried to change it, but there is no other modes available.
So I get back to console and try s-c-d, then start again X. The backlight went off again, so I returned to the original problem.
I tried to manually edit the xorg.conf, but the result is the same blank screen.
I think that the problem is depending by the resolution.
Any clue?
Thanks: Balazs
