Title:
Support for Ambient Light Sensor in ASUS Zenbook UX301LAA
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
On a wiki page related to ASUS Zenbook
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AsusZenbookPrime) there is a note
about Ambient Light Sensor:
===
Ambient light sensor: They keycode to use is 248, that is "fn"+"A", the icon on the "A" is a sensor with lightrays and the text auto. Doesn't work by default, because a driver exists but it's not included in kernel source. Need testing. Bug is reported. You can, however, use an external application to make it work: https://github.com/danieleds/Asus-Zenbook-Ambient-Light-Sensor-Controller.
===
According to referenced bug report
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70421), the bug is fixed
long time ago. Can we have this sensor supported at last?
