Good news, thanks. I'll add it to the list. >> Can you tell me what machine that is? Size, backlit keyboard, ... > It's 15'' MacBookPro bought in November 2009.

I've had several reports of that on this generation of MacBook Pro but I have no idea what it is going on here. As I don't have access to the hardware, I rely on people who do to fix this. Running pommed in debug mode should shed some light on the issue. Either it's the SMC not liking a setting of 0, or the ambient light sensors are acting funny (as if they ever acted otherwise...), triggering the backlight again. In the first case, there's probably a way to work around the issue. In the second case, ... I don't know. IIRC these machines lack the "backlight off" button that was present on previous generations :( JB. -- Julien BLACHE - Debian & GNU/Linux Developer - <[email protected]> Public key available on <http://www.jblache.org> - KeyID: F5D6 5169 GPG Fingerprint : 935A 79F1 C8B3 3521 FD62 7CC7 CD61 4FD7 F5D6 5169 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
