Hi all,

Hans de Goede, one of the upower maintainers, suggested I alert you all to this bug:


and the new one I filed via the kernel bugzilla:


"keyboard backlight max_brightness value outside allowable range on Dell Latitude E6410 laptop"

Please check it out at your earliest convenience.

thanks,

 Hi Gabriel, please avoid sending such html emails to mailing list as it is hard to read them and also you have a very big chance that email would be eaten by spam filter or other developers would completely ignore it... To debug your problem, can you run smbios-keyboard-ctl tool from the libsmbios project? https://github.com/dell/libsmbios We would need output from --info parameter and also from --get-status. -- Pali Rohár pali.rohar@gmail.com
