          Platform: All

        ReportedBy: rydberg at euromail.se


Latest working kernel version: unknown
Earliest failing kernel version: unknown
Distribution: ubuntu
Hardware Environment: macbook air
Software Environment: git kernel source
Problem Description: Macbook air not recognized by applesmc

Steps to reproduce: none

The Applesmc module wrongly detects the Macbook Air as a macbook, which does
not have keyboard backlights. Also, the sensor set is wrong. A patch is
attached which 

1) makes applesmc detect the macbook air

2) sets up a minimal set of sensors

The sensor set is most likely not complete, but at least the keyboard backlight
is activated.
