Hi,

I am working on enabling the backlight brightness tuning through the GUI on 
an AM437xevm. The sysfs file /sys/class/backlight/backlight.10/brightness 
can be used to adjust the brightness through the shell, but the GUI fails 
to open this file, despite it being RW and owned by system:

ls -l /sys/class/backlight/backlight.10/brightness
-rw-r--r-- system   system       4096 2000-01-01 00:00 brightness

The failure appears in logcat:

I/lights  ( 2163): write_int failed to open /sys/class/backlight/backlight.
10/brightness

Furthermore, PID 2163 (system_server) is run as the system user:

# ps 2163
USER     PID   PPID  VSIZE  RSS     WCHAN    PC         NAME
system    2163  1433  580812 43188 ffffffff 400d77cc S system_server

What can be the issue?
