Does anyone know how to enable backlit keyboard on ASUS G53SX?
Edit as of Feb 18, 2012: As Qw4z1 mentioned here's a trick to enable the backlit brightness:
su (enter root password) echo 0x00050021 > /sys/kernel/debug/asus-nb-wmi/dev_id echo 0x82 > /sys/kernel/debug/asus-nb-wmi/ctrl_param cat /sys/kernel/debug/asus-nb-wmi/devs exit 12 Answers
Try function F4 to turn the brightness up on the keypad.
This does it for me:
echo 0x00050021 > /sys/kernel/debug/asus-nb-wmi/dev_id echo 0x82 > /sys/kernel/debug/asus-nb-wmi/ctrl_param cat /sys/kernel/debug/asus-nb-wmi/devs Can't seem to find a better solution for G53SX. Doesn't seem to work after a reboot though, so maybe run att startup or keep it in a file that you can run when it's dark. =)
