i can see that the function that controls the keypad leds are 'platform_slide property button.state.value'
Here 'true' is keypad closed (off) and 'false' is keypad open (on)

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"

:D

Re: Increase keyboard leds power ?

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.

Re: Increase keyboard leds power ?

hope we get some who can write us the script/program whtaever.

i try do get some attention to this thread.

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

Re: Increase keyboard leds power ?

jep so it is.

The Tool is nice ;) but we need a deamon or something else that starts on the boot and let they keyboard shine like the sun xD

Re: Increase keyboard leds power ?

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

Re: Increase keyboard leds power ?

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 :D 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 :) ).
