Yes, I'll submit SRU to the kernel team to cherry pick those patches. But, we still don't have a good way in userspace to cooperate with the kernel driver.
It just comes to my mind, maybe ubuntu kernel team will accept the way turning on/off touchpad LED in the driver until we have a better way doing this in userspace app. I'll try it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/914348 Title: Touchpad LED on Dell's laptop is not working Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In some of Dell laptops, they support a touchpad LED to indicate the enablement/disablement of the touchpad. And kernel(after 3.2) supports an interface to turn on/off the LED, user space app should take the responsibility to handle this, and I think gnome-settings-daemon is the best one. The interface is in /sys To turn on the LED echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/dell-laptop::touchpad/brightness To turn it off echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/dell-laptop::touchpad/brightness To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/914348/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
