Package: mbpeventd Version: 0.9-1 Severity: normal Hello,
To change the keyboard backlight (on a MacBook pro) the applesmc kernel module must be loaded. Unfortunately this module is not yet provided in the vanilla Linux kernel and is available from http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/mactel-linux/trunk/kernel/mactel-patches-2.6.18/applesmc.patch?view=log I know the problem is not really with mbpeventd but with the Debian kernel. This bug is a reminder that the mbpeventd can't be fully used with Debian Linux kernel linux-image-2.6.18-3-686 Maybe the Debian package could contain insructions on how to build the applesmc kernel module for a Debian kernel? I will try to built it myself and comment in this bug report.
