I can manually control keyboard backlight with echo 255 > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/leds/smc::kbd_backlight/brightness to fully turn on or echo 0 to turn it off... This was after the install of applesmc-dkms.
There does seem to be some oddity traversing the directory structure there as it seems to loop. My remaining issue is the ability to adjust this value through the Fn keys like we can with the display backlight. Anyone know what is missing to make that work or a workaround to just send 0 or 255 via those F5 and F6 keys? -- [Jaunty] MacBook 5.1 keyboard backlight not supported https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
