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.

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 It's outdated, granted, but still, there's no reason for this package.

I'd also say that this tuxedo-keyboard-ite is an optional dependency at most.

edit: Or does it compile differently with this package installed? In that case it's probably a real dependency. But since tuxedo-keyboard-ite depends on tuxedo-keyboard, I'd recommend to leave tuxedo-keyboard-ite out of here.

The latest update introduced a dependency loop:

tuxedo-keyboard requires tuxedo-keyboard-ite but tuxedo-keyboard-ite requires tuxedo-keyboard
