Hi Mattia,

(taking the MMC guy out, this is not about the SD card reader anymore)

I am a step further on. Thanks to Ishikawa-san I have an sony-laptop.c
file which allows setting the backlight using the
/sys/devices/backlight/{sony,acpi_video0}/backlight files
(interestingly, they do not agree on their behaviour, xbacklight can
change in 12.5% jumps, that makes 9 different values, but allowed are
only 8 (from 0 to 7). In sony the 0% is missing, in acpi_video0 the 100%
is missing -- i.e., sony/brightness 0 is brighter than
acpi_video0/brightness 0, and so on).

But still the function keys do not work.

No idea what could be done here.

Best wishes

Norbert
