Hello,

I have a little problem with the function keys for the keyboard
backlight on my asus n56v laptop. They don't work anymore.

This is what I have in my rc.lua:

    awful.key({ }, "XF86AudioRaiseVolume", function ()
awful.util.spawn("amixer -c 0 set Master 1dB+") end),
    awful.key({ }, "XF86AudioLowerVolume", function ()
awful.util.spawn("amixer -c 0 set Master 1dB-") end),
    awful.key({ }, "XF86AudioMute", function () awful.util.spawn("amixer
-c 0 set Master toggle") end),
    awful.key({ }, "XF86KbdBrightnessDown", function ()
awful.util.spawn("asus-kbd-backlight down") end),
    awful.key({ }, "XF86KbdBrightnessUp", function ()
awful.util.spawn("asus-kbd-backlight up") end),
    awful.key({}, "XF86Calculator", function ()
awful.util.spawn("xcalc") end),



I got these key names from xev. Although for some reason I have to press
shift + fn + function key to get the name.
The commands, for example 'asus-kbd-backlight down', work (as superuser
because of permissions) when I put them in a terminal. The other
function keys work.


Any help would appreciated!

Bas
