My Dell Latitude D610 screen backlight stays off after lid is re-opened.

My workaround: installed vbetool from packages; enabled powerd and run at
"released" for lid_switch script: /usr/pkg/sbin/vbetool dpms on

Any ideas on how to get NetBSD to get the screen back on without
third-party tool?

(I am at console; no X yet.)
