I just tried the upstream kernel (3.3.0-999-generic) and the issue still persists.
What else can I do? This is really frustrating, especially because the F5/F6 keys mess up the icon- and window-themes instead now. I noticed other postings regarding this issue as well here: #832603. ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/960417 Title: Keyboard backlight cannot be adjusted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/960417/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
