Light level fixed in ASUS UX330UAK #172

Closed rogervn closed 7 years ago

rogervn commented 7 years ago

Hello, I've installed the AUR iio-sensor-proxy in arch with kernel 4.11.9-1-ARCH, but after running monitor-sensor and debugging with G_MESSAGES_DEBUG_ALL, it seems that the light level keeps stuck on 400.000 and doesn't change even if I turn off the lights.

G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all /usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy output:

iio-sensor-proxy.txt

You can try and verify whether the light level changes by using "cat" as root in the directory mentioned. If that doesn't change either, then it's a problem with either the device or its driver.

cat at /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM\:00/LNXSYBUS\:00/ACPI0008\:00/iio\:device0/in_illuminance_raw does always return 400. What can I do to check the driver? It works perfectly in Windows.

I'm afraid I can't do anything about it then. Please report the bug to the driver developer(s).
