Please don't abuse the "Flag package out-of-date" function to report bugs, please use the comment function as intended.

When the "Flag package out-of-date" will be abused to report a bug, I will unflag it and wait, that the bug will be reported as comment. If you don't want to report a bug as comment, please feel free to contact me directly via e-mail. Unflagging doesn't mean that I'm "implied refusal to correct".

Also, filling out an "Orphan Request" more or less directly after I unflagged it, isn't fair. I don't always have the time to take care of it straight away. So, please give me time.

Since commit #254e167 (https://github.com/tuxedocomputers/tuxedo-keyboard/commit/254e16714f91a6041f29b36ee547be98572643e5), Tuxedo has added a TUXEDO DMI string check.

Noobie here. Just a reminder to fellow noobs, if you are using linux-lts, then make sure you have linux-lts-headers installed. Otherwise dkms will complain with something like this:

(2/2) Install DKMS modules ==> ERROR: Missing opt kernel headers for module tuxedo-keyboard/3.2.3. ==> ERROR: Missing etc kernel headers for module tuxedo-keyboard/3.2.3.

Since version 3.2.0, tuxedo-keyboard uses the SysFS Interface. https://github.com/tuxedocomputers/tuxedo-keyboard/blob/4749901db2dcc3430bf6497086bb9fefbac7eeff/src_pkg/rpm_pkg.spec#L144-L148

Ok, holy shit. I've given it a try, installing tcc and the current version of this package here. It fucks up the picture on my external monitor!!! Wtf?!

Looks like I have to stay with version 3.1.4 of this package or they fix this. Maybe I'll file a bug report.

I have the same problem waltervh has. For me it's really an issue because I don't use tcc but tcd-community (https://github.com/sleepingtux/TCD_COMMUNITY and there was a PKGBUILD here once…) instead to handle my fan control and other tools for the other things tcc provides.

So can we only control the backlight with the keyboard shortcuts, when tcc is installed?

@waltervh what do you mean with "broke"? If you mean with "broke" that the configuration file doesn't work anymore: With tuxedo-keyboard 3.2.0 and TUXEDO Control Center 2.0.0 you are now able to configure the keyboard backlight over the TUXEDO Control Center. https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/en/TUXEDO-Control-Center-2-0-introduces-new-modules.tuxedo

The update to 3.2.0 broke my keyboard backlight. I had to downgrade to 3.1.4. Anyone an idea what is the issue here?

@sekret thanks for your comment.

It was recently brought to my attention that tuxedo-keyboard and tuxedo-keyboard-ite may violate package naming guidelines. To avoid deletion for violating the naming guidelines, tuxedo-keyboard and tuxedo-keyboard-ite have been renamed to tuxedo-keyboard-dkms and tuxedo-keyboard-ite-dkms. Merge requests for both packages have already been submitted.

It is, as far as I know, not clearly defined whether packages that are only available as dkms packages must have -dkms in the name or not.

I hope you can understand my decision.

sekret commented on 2022-10-08 20:44 (UTC)

Why this additional package? tuxedo-keyboard is exactly the same. It's outdated, granted, but still, there's no reason for this package.
