Mario, yeah... Also ThinkPads have the same problem, because no event is sent from the kernel.
So, I had the same idea you had to fix this. However the change has to be done at UPower level, since if u-p-s (or you try with gdbus call) calls GetBrigthtness it always get the last cached value. So, in my opinion, UPower should have a trick to fetch the current value on get, and not return the cached value. In this way we can add a workaround (which I already have in terms of code) to UPS to update the cached brightness when changing it. Not sure how upstream would see that, but I think we can try. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510344 Title: Keyboard Backlight Turns on at boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dell-sputnik/+bug/1510344/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
