i can report that I have had this problem too... but successfully resolved simply by switching off, taking battery out for a couple of minutes (not seconds) and then restarting the phone.
It does seem that fcam is a suspect here...I use it as well and I have a feeling the keyboard light stopped working after I had been using it and it had crashed.

yeah... fixing the keyb lights and status led after FCAM requires pulling out the battery for a few minutes... its not enough with only a few seconds.
Last thing I did before the keyboard and notification LED stopped working was install Titan's latest FCam driver after updating to the .44 release of his kernel.

disableEm.sh: Remebers the last state the keyboard was in when you activate it. If Keyboard slider was closed, the keyboard Lights would turn off. If Keyboard slider was opened, the keyboard Lights would stay on.
EnableEm.sh Returns everything back to normal.
Please note that this would not help the keyboard issue of this thread, that fix is mentioned on pg4

Even I had noticed that my phones keyboard back light and other notification led light was not working. As suggested above simply removing battery for 20+ sec and then restarting phone worked.

When I run the script it tells: Permission denied.

Go to mce.ini and look for this line:
Modules=display;keypad;vibrator;led;battery;filter-brightness-als;inactivity;alarm;accelerometer;callstate;camer a;homekey;audiorouting
Remove the word 'keypad' to make it look like this:
Modules=display;vibrator;led;battery;filter-brightness-als;inactivity;alarm;accelerometer;callstate;camer a;homekey;audiorouting
(All this does is take off keypad lights.)
Restart the phone and remove the battery. Now turn it on again.
Go back to mce.ini and re-add the word keypad to the line
e.g
Modules=display;keypad;vibrator;led;battery;filter-brightness-als;inactivity;alarm;accelerometer;callstate;camer a;homekey;audiorouting
(This returns keypad lights.)
Turn phone off again, take out battery for about 15 more seconds and switch the n900 on again.
There's no guarrantee it would work though...
