[Powerdevil] [Bug 360537] Keyboard Backlight endless loop when changed, only inside plasma session

--- Comment #8 from Fuchs <develop at fuchsnet.ch> ---
As a sidenote there is a BIOS setting on how the brightness key should behave,
I can't remember whether that is only related to the thinklight (which gets
turned on after 3 presses) or also the keyboard levels. I'll update the bug
report if there are any changes. 

As discussed on IRC, just to have this documented here as well: 

the keyboard event emitted unfortunately also has other side effects, e.g. when
using the slider of the battery plasmoid it closes it. So it would be great to
have that fixed upstream in kernel. Also the OSD is obviously not shown when
the key binding is disabled, this should be workaroundable with a little script
and dbus, I'll also update the bug report when I manage something. Won't have
time today / in the next two days though. Thanks so far for everybody involved.
