It seems my message didn't make it to the list, but once the Asus declarati= on=20 was made by the OP, I suggested differently of course: =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D I see ... in that case you should try instead enabling: CONFIG_ASUS_LAPTOP I think that Fn+F3/F4 adjusts the keyboard backlight. Look at the help pag= e=20 in make menuconfig.
