[Bug 1021952] Re: [Toshiba Qosmio X500-Q895S] Backlit keyboard stopped working

 

Marcelo Ruiz, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags:
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [Toshiba Qosmio X500-Q895S] Backlit keyboard stopped working

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,
  My backlit keyboard used to work fine under Maverick, although no notification was shown on screen when hitting Fn+Z.
  Now I can see the notification but that doesn't turn the back led light on and off as it used to.
  If I set in the BIOS to auto (turning it on when I type and turning it off after 15 seconds) it works, although Fn+Z shows the notification and doesn't change the state.
  Thanks!
