I can turn on/off LCD by using vbetool
vbetool dpms on/off
But I can not find a way to know the current state of LCD. on? or off?
Is there any method, command or something else to indicate the state of LCD?

Use "xset q" - if you grep through there you will see a line that says
something similar to "Monitor is on". I am assuming you are using X here...

cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/state
If it's not what you need, do what I do when I search hardware infos not
provided by any tool:
find /proc /sys | less
and cat everything that seems interesting.
