Ok, I think same. In KDE4 I see some loop/noop operation when new dell keyboard backlight driver is used. Key KEY_KBDILLUMTOGGLE cause that BIOS change brightness and also KDE4 see it and change it too... Similar problem there is with KEY_WLAN and NetworkManager. Gabriele, can you create patch which disable both KEY_WLAN and KEY_KBDILLUMTOGGLE in dell-wmi.c driver? -- Pali Rohár pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx
