Good point, thanks.

I think "key" is important, since there are many confusions regarding lcd and
key backlight. And the dmesg line becomes awfully long quickly... I'll check.

Yes. Newer models seem to be moving away from the whole light sensor thing, but
a few machines had "stereo" light sensors, which later turned into a single
sensor. The "left and right" is less important than "stereo and mono", which
boils down to the number of sensors. Maybe I can change the names to make this
clearer.

Nah, noise. :-)

Yep. See comment above.

Merging the has_left and has_right into a number might resolve the problems.

Thanks,
Henrik
