YogaSMC doesn't remember KB backlight settings

[outlandernwah]

When sleeping the laptop (X260), app doesn't remember KB backlight settings after a reboot and even sleep.

Why ideas there?

Thanks for everything!

(Also says "Move to Applications folder" on every restart. It's there. Seems to remember the other settings, just not KB backlight.)

There are a lot variables that interact with backlight and make it complex. Did it work before or if it breaks after the timeout commit?

For the second one, probably the app launched is not the one under /Application folder. You can find the path of the running one with ps -e | grep NC.

It has never remembered, unfortunately. I figured it might have something to do with my parenthetical issue haha

Yeah, it says it's coming from here:

@outlandernwah, have you ever fixed this one? I hate it that it always need to turn on the backlit keyboard since most of the time I'm always multitasking lol

[outlandernwah]

Lol nah I just click the function button now. Not that serious. Let me know if you figure it out tho. Works great on Windows.

Hey mate, I have already figured this out. lol Here is what works for me.
Make sure you press enter after setting the timeout

If that works I'll laugh. I fucking hate Apple sometimes, buddy lmao

[outlandernwah]

Like WHY????

[outlandernwah]

Enter doesn't even do what it's supposed to do half the time lol but I'm gonna check right now

I'll be waiting for your update so I can laugh with you lol

Could not get it to do that thang. Loads up but no auto backlight

Edit* I was impatient. It did actually fookin' work!

Thanks bud!!!

So it worked like you said. But ya need to click a key and then it lights up. Good enough for me!

Much better than powering it on everytime

I think I found the root cause, the Panel does not update the plist file correctly. Changing some settings triggers update.
MicMuteFixup also don't apply to me, but after setting it checked and changing some settings also I noticed that the plist file update.

That's why settings applied does not take effect. I don't have much experience on macos development can't submit a PR

Me neither. I've been learning as I go. I'm on the X260 ThinkPad what about you?

I'm using T480, everything works except DRM. Thunderbolt works also but I'm looking into proper TB3 power management since this device when on sucks a hell lot of juice

I think DRM is fine if you switch your browser. Not positive if you can get it working natively but I've been wondering.

That's a great device btw I was looking into it.
