I have a Cherry CyMotion Expert keyboard. When I was using it this
afternoon, I noticed the lights were not working. This was on KDE4.2 and I
hadn’t had any trouble with it on KDE3.5. I rebooted to 3.5 and, lo and
behold, the lights worked.
However, I’ve just had a daemon crash on 3.5 and I noticed the lights had
gone out. I wasn’t sure the two events were coincident but a quick Google
for kded4, the daemon that crashed, suggests they were. I was surprised to
know I had a KDE4 daemon running at all on KDE3. It’s a bit worrying if
KDE4 bugs are leaking over to KDE3. I’ll have a look on Bugzilla to see
what I can find.
The (edited) back-trace follows for any bright spark who’s interested.
