A quick googling suggests that this might be to do with your keyboard backlight. See https://github.com/dell/libsmbios/issues/3 In summary, though, your options are to either build a new libsmbios using the code from github (as it looks like the fix hasn't been released yet) or put up with a potentially wonky keyboard backlight until the fix makes its way to Debian. -- For more information, please reread.
