For the backlight I rescovered: http://fdd.com/software/radeon/ Tool to turn on/off the backlight. I set it up in acpid to turn off the backlight when the lid closes and back on when the lid opens (as long as it doesn't get out of sync).

I am running that patched radeon, and I can't do anything with brightness or the external monitor. Might be something else in my setup tho.
