[Bug] xd75 doesn't build on head about qmk_firmware

[lesshonor]

I am not sure what you mean by "sync qmk_firmware to tip of tree".

QMK has some documentation on working with git which you may find helpful.

Be warned that in the intervening years, xd75 has been moved to xiudi/xd75. There have likely been many other changes which could break your keymaps. I would honestly recommend doing a git fetch upstream && git checkout upstream/master so you can scope things out with a detached HEAD before taking any plunges. Best of luck.

oops my bad. I didn't in fact merge correctly with tip of tree. Thought I did yesterday :S

qmk compile -kb xd75 -km default does indeed build on qmk/qmk_firmware:master. Sorry for the noise.

Perhaps what I should be really asking is that there seems to be a regression on xd75 on head with the backlight feature.

Putting aside my userspace keymap for the time being, setting

qmk_firmware/keyboards/xiudi/xd75/rules.mk

Line 10 in 8075003

BACKLIGHT_ENABLE = no # Enable keyboard backlight functionality

to yes no longer seems to work with the default keymap. But the hardware itself does have LEDs on the board and a per key LED which used to work in the past.

The following compiles fine on develop

I see. I suppose it works on master too with

BACKLIGHT_ENABLE = yes
BACKLIGHT_DRIVER = timer

Unclear how users would know to set BACKLIGHT_DRIVER as well. Perhaps this was implicit at one point further up in the tree when rules.mk for this keyboard used to set the MCU, etc. Not sure if related.

Either way, I can build my keymap on master now. Thanks!
