Agent_USA and friends will tell you he did nothing, where as the bulk of the normal, intelligent world will advise you he was an arse.
Just look at the punishments on the book for merely starting a political party, let alone opposing Gaddafi..
But as to your question, his goons opened fire on crowds across Libya, even using gunships and tanks to try to quell the trouble. This is out there for you to find for yourself and has been covered to death..
The fact you started out with "Gaddafi was clearly a good guy" and ended the paragraph with "what has he done?" leads me to believe that you are another Gaddafi fan/West hater type, so this will probably be my one and only post in reply, unless of course you are an intelligent chap.
The reason I don't reply to Agent and Chums is I really have better things to do than try to convince people that their Idol is really total cnut.

Yeah, he's done a lot of good
Orchestrating and covering up the Lockerbie bombing
Orchestrating and covering up the murder of PC Fletcher
The mother of the murdered police officer Yvonne Fletcher today said she believed her daughter's killer would be apprehended after it was revealed Libyan authorities were cooperating with British detectives investigating her shooting. "They have been out several times and we are just crossing our fingers. We are hopeful that someone will be brought to justice," Queenie Fletcher told Guardian Unlimited.
The shooting happened shortly after 10am in St James's Square, London, dappled in warm spring sunshine and coloured with daffodils. The anti-Gadafy demonstration, to mark a "martyrs day" in the Libyan calendar, had been given police permission. That was why WPC Fletcher and other police officers were calmly shepherding a group of some 70 anti-Gadafy demonstrators, all of them masked to avoid recognition, behind barriers on the pavement opposite the bureau, the Libyan embassy.
The anti-Gadafy group began shouting "Gadafy, murderer," "Gadafy, child killer," and "Down with Gadafy."

Like we don't sell arms? Oh wait - we may have even sold some to Gadaffi!

Fact is we cosy up to people like Gadaffi when it suits but when we sense the wind going the other way or when there is some strategic advantage, we come over all holier than though. Some call it being two faced, others call it pragmatism
We are friends with Saudi Arabia right now just because it suits (for the moment).
Don't expect morals to come into it.

Sponsoring terrorism, namely the IRA, Lockerbie and the Berlin Disco bomb. A prison massacre where over 1000 political prisoners were executed for having the temerity to complain about the crap conditions there. Many dissaperences of opposition, massacres of protesters and brutal supression of individual rights and freedoms we take for granted.
