Default X10 switch off the front LEDs

Got my X10 recently, nice phone

There is a niggle though: is it possible to switch off the front LEDs on the X10? Google Sky is fun and is nice when you switch on night mode, but as soon as you press a button (e.g. to search) the LEDs come on and bang goes your night vision...

What do you mean? You mean the notification led on the front? If it is, just search the market for Blink application.

Not the notification led; I'm talking about the two bright white less between the three buttons at the bottom of the phone

The front button LEDs, oddly, are controlled by the framework-res.apk.
Don't know anything more helpful than that, just giving you a clue!

Wouldn't a fine tipped black sharpie marker do the trick?
