I am having trouble getting the backlight working (G73JH-X1 w/ unlocked 213 bios v5 from
http://forum.notebookreview.com/asu...um/670921-asus-g73jh-bd-prochot-bios-mod.html )
i am running OSX 10.8.4 Mountain Lion.
I edited my DSDT per the instructions in this thread and still no keyboard light. It works in Windows so I know my keyboard backlight works fine.
I attached the DSDT i am using right now for this laptop (I extracted and patched it myself using MaciASL)
ioreg -n PS2K -r PS2K | grep -y oem-id
does not print anything to term window
ioreg -n FakeSMC -r FakeSMC | grep mb-
"mb-manufacturer" = "ASUSTeK Computer Inc. "
"mb-product" = "G73Jh"
Console Log shows this error when "Ctrl_Alt_+" is pressed rather then changing the backlight. same happens when "Ctrl_Alt_-" is pressed
kernel[0]: ApplePS2Keyboard: sending key 4e=0, 0=80 (when "+" is used) kernel[0]: ApplePS2Keyboard: sending key 4a=0, 0=80 (when "-" is used)
kernel[0]: ps2bl: KKCM returned error
I have tried running different (older) releases of Voodoo (2013-226),(2013-0407),(2013-0526) and all 3 result in no keyboard backlight functionality.
