Hi there.
I'm not entirely sure that it is appropriate for me to write to you. However, I
got a funny little thing happening to my karmic-macbook5.1, which might be of
interest to your further developments on Mactel PPA packages. I upgraded from
Jaunty to Karmic. As I install the pommed package, the keyboard backlight
lights up and stays like that for about 1 minute, before it goes dark again.
During that 1 minute I can use the F5/F6 to make it brighter or darker, but,
after the backlight dies, those keys don't seem to be of any use.
Now, here's the interesting part: When I run the command "SUDO POMMED START" in
the shell, the keyboard lights up again for another 1 minute, after which it
once again dies out. Every time I run the command I get another minute of
backlight.
This is the last remaining issue I got with my karmic, so am trying to avoid a
new fresh installation in attempting to fix it. Do you guys have any idea what
could be causing this? Or how could I attempt to fix it? Should I add, I've
been using Linux for the past couple of years, but as a Social Sciences guy, I
guess I'll be an eternal newbie. Would really appreciate any help.
Thanks for your attention.
Regards,
Gui Fernandes
