Hi, In Precise kernel, it already provided an interface to turn on/off the tourchpad LED /sys/class/leds/dell-laptop::touchpad/brightness
Other patches are just quirks to add more machines to have this interface, so I don't think it's so urgent. The problem is that there is no userspace app to take care of this interface, and to turn on/off the LED while touchpad toggle events happened. It's not suitable to let driver handle this, for it can't access the led subsystem while receiving the key events. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/914348 Title: Touchpad LED on Dell's laptop is not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/914348/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
