Thanks for the explanation. What would have been the best way on ssh to
switch on the backlight again and/or restart the repowerd?

During the situation the /userdata file system was 100% full, no space
left on device, because I wanted to save 'ps ax > ps.txt' in phablet's
HOME. After the re-boot ('sudo reboot') the file system had ~3 GByte
free. Any idea on this? Is it worth to file a LP bug?

Maybe it's worth to read the files /var/log/repowerd.log* ...

Maybe the reboot per SSH was overkill. If only the backlight was off,
the menu for "Power off / Restart / Cancel" was onscreen after pressing the power
button and the "Power off" is in the middle of the physical display.
