wacom: Drop LED helper #337

Closed ItzSwirlz closed 2 years ago

ItzSwirlz commented 3 years ago

GNOME has already gotten rid of it, for a simple reason - the kernel supports it.

"LED switching on Wacom devices is implemented by the kernel driver since v4.9. It is already about 4 years old, it's late enough that we may drop this code."

Better to not have any LED switching from csd fighting the kernel. GNOME commit: https://github.com/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/2ff2edeb169646fe2d6bb3bc358fbf38b0b62f5d


I did stumble upon GNOME added their own OLED helper, but maybe that's for next release.
