I can confirm the same issue with my Thinkpad x61s, remaining even after the update to kernel 2.6.24.15. As described above, a short idle period results in lcd dimming and resumption of activity with a click or mouse movement results in further dimming. Not more than a small annoyance at the moment, though. I did not notice anything in dmesg, but I am attaching the output of dmesg and gnome-power-bugreport.sh immediately after this happened.
