Hi,

As I mentioned before, since I was using voria ppa for samsung notebook
provide a good behavior, especially concerning the black-light tuning using
specific key. It was, cause for a couple of weeks it doesn't work any more !
I don't really know why, perhaps due to the last voria ppa update ?

I tried first to fully remove this ppa, and I tested again, it doesn't word
as it is with Standard Ubuntu packages. Then I reinstall it again, reboot my
laptop, but it changes nothing...

I'm still available to provide extra information if needed, don't hesitate !

That's all for today.

Happy new year
