Simon,

Sorry about that - there was a syntax problem in regions.c

I've just updated it so it should work properly now, if you are happy to
test it again.

The keyboard shortcut is currently set up to connect to the samsung
laptop kernel driver, but since the module is disabled on UEFI, the
shortcuts don't do anything. That's why I want to write a UEFI-safe
module for this.

Title:
  Keyboard backlight does not work in Samsung Series 9 NP900X4C

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 13.04, the keyboard backlight does not work in Samsung
  Series 9 NP900X4C.

  Adding the FN key mappings as described in
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SamsungSeries9 does show information
  in the notification area when pressing the keyboard backlight's + and
  - buttons, but:

  1) The notification always identifies the backlight as "full max"
  2) It has no effect on the backlight - it's always off

  When I first installed Ubuntu on this machine (12.10), even though the
  fn keys never worked I did have intermitent backlight functionality -
  the light sensor would sometimes work and I'd see light in the
  keyboard.

  I dual boot in Windows 8 and backlighting works there, so this is not
  a hardware issue.
