Tested-by: Pali Rohár <pali.ro...@gmail.com> CC: sta...@vger.kernel.org Tested on Latitude E6440 and now userspace does not receive KEY_KBDILLUMTOGGLE event, so does not try to change keyboard backlight (which is already done by BIOS when key is pressed). I suggest to backport this patch to stable kernels because this problem is in all kernel versions which have dell-wmi.c driver. -- Pali Rohár pali.ro...@gmail.com
