I don't know how to link this to dbus-monitor, when using dbus-monitor it reacts to open and close but displays the same, of course even if the echo "5000" ... is used when keypad is closed, the leds don't light up.

'Erazor' if you want to try yourself the relevant commands are
Code:
lshal -m
Code:
dbus-monitor --system

yeah
i'll test somethig.

!!!
AND YES

WE NEED A DEVELOPER / SCRIPTER TO HELP US WITH THE KEYBOARD LIGHTS !!!

perhabs a app would be nice to change the brightness like this in the settings for the display.

Did i hear a CSSU Devoloper to integrate this in the "Firmware-Update"

Quite easily done using dbuscron or dbus-scripts to trigger when the KB is slid running a script to echo in higher values.

Unsure what the hardware repercussions of this are, though.

this does nothing other than light up some keys as you move the bar,it offers no control that the OP was asking for?

also would like this as keyboard backlighting seems so dull compared to brightness in NITDroid

You could try the attached file.
It moves a "kbdled" program which I coded to /opt/maemo/usr/bin

Now you have to create a file in /etc/dbus-scripts.d/ with the following content:

Code:

#:Kbdled slider
/opt/maemo/usr/bin/kbdled * * org.freedesktop.Hal.Device Condition ButtonPressed cover

#:Kbdled inactivity
/opt/maemo/usr/bin/kbdled * * com.nokia.mce.signal system_inactivity_ind

(And of course you have to have dbus-scripts installed

reboot)

Program should fade when you open up the keyboard from 50 up to 255 led_current and the same when your keyboard is still open but N900 is inactive and gets reactivated.

Hope it works (is my first program so please be gentle

Attached Files

kbdled_0.0.1_armel.deb (9.0 KB, 77 views)
