This is still a bug. The fix I posted appears to set backlighting on when keys are pressed (and switches it off after the set delay time). The ambient light sensor does not appear to work (ie. in a fully lit room, the keyboard still lights up).
I am certain this is a kernel regression. It worked fine prior to the 3.0 kernel release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/804595 Title: Sony Vaio VPCS132FX/B Ambient Light sensor does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/804595/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
