hi, can someone kindly help me with kbd-backlight issue? It was working with f28, but not with f29

$setleds 
setleds: Error reading current flags setting. Maybe you are not on the console?: ioctl KDGKBLED: Inappropriate ioctl for device

also

xset led 3

has not made any change. My laptop is asus build. Any help, please?

NB. I don't know what else to report. Please ask.

It's a bug in upower. See this report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug....

It has been corrected upstream, so it should be solved when when the relevant package will be updated. In the meantime, see the workaround proposed in the comment 12 of the report.
