HDD activity LED triggered by airplane mode

Issue #5 new
Karol Herbst created an issue

I have now idea why this happens, but somehow whenever airplane mode is activated, my hdd LED is also enabled and because of this, it doesn't react to the hdd activity anymore.

Maybe you have any idea what might be going on here?

    I haven't seen this behaviour before. I wasn't able to reproduce it on my model (but to be fair it's fairly old by now). Looking through the code I don't see any obvious connection to the hdd led.

    Could you give me a dmidecode, a printout of your acpi tables and what actions you use to activate airplane mode?

  2. Arnoud Willemsen

    Another possibility that came to me is that the hdd led is used instead of the airplane led, but I can't be sure from the short description of your problem.

    echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/clevo_xsm::airplane/brightness enables both LEDs (airplane and disc)
