Hi Christopher,

I just installed 3.19.8-031908-generic and the backlight still doesn't
work, which is mysterious.  I'm now starting to worry if I misremember
this keyboard backlight working in the past!

Will try and get a live cd of vivdi, and maybe one of trusty too, boot
from them and see what I see...

Title:
  Keyboard backlight stopped working after upgrade to Wily

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm using a Samsung Ativ Book 9.  Keyboard backlight worked OK under
  Vivid, seems to have stopped working since I installed Wily.  Can't
  see any evidence of it in /sys/class.

  Happy to do any further debugging if it helps.
