Difference between v3.19-rc5 and current version is just als code was moved to separate functions and als backlight can be enabled via new sysfs attribute (like in second patch which was sent). I tested this patch on top of linus tree (commit 79513d0) and keyboard backlight works fine. Darren, what do you think, can be this patch which brings keyboard backlight support finally moved to mainline kernel? -- Pali Rohár pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx
