Do the brightness keys on the keyboard work? What's the battery drain like when the laptop is asleep?
- kelvie 3y agoYes they work (plasma 5 KDE on arch). On the 55Wh battery with a 7840U, it loses 2-3% per hour when asleep, so I set up suspend-then-hibernate after an hour (though setting that up was a pain in itself).
- nbf_1995 3y agoThey work, but on gnome you might have to disable the `hid_sensor_hub` kernel module.
- Rebelgecko 3y agoI look forward to the day when we can use all of the keys on the keyboard without having to disable the ambient light sensor.
- nbf_1995 3y agoI installed gnome to double check and the issue seems to be fixed. I can use the brightness keys with ambient light sensor enable.
