With loading acpi_video it works now in console mode, i.e. the LCD goes off and on on lid close/open. When I have X11 up and running (the Nvidia driver), the LCD goes off as well, but on return I only see the console message of the X11 startup-session (i.e. the console from where I launched 'startx') and I'm unable to switch to any other virtual screen and also not to the X11 session; zapping X11 with Ctrl-Alt-BS does not work either and I have had to reboot with power-off/on. Any idea?
