Hi. Change backlight and turbo mode works in kernel 6.5. In kernel 6.8 update you can change mods (quite , balanced, performance , turbo). I updated kernel . But now I can't change keyboard backlight . Is there a way change backlight?

Hi, How exactly does the backlight mode worked in kernel 6.5? how did you control rgb colors? was dynamic coloring working as well? I don't have an Acer anymore

Everything was working normally. When I wrote the mode/color at the end of the facer_rgb.py command, it worked

Ok there was a misunderstanding, I thought you were able to change colors without using this repository. Try install linux headers, uninstall the repository, reboot, install repo again
