DId not work after restart. #40

Closed dragonfetus closed 2 years ago

dragonfetus commented 2 years ago

It worked as expected when I first installed it but after shutting down my computer and turning it on after a few hours the colors were gone and the keyboard was stuck at red. I did install it as a service so that should not have happened. now if I try to change the colours using the python script this error appears. ./facer_rgb.py -m 3 -s 5 -b 100 ──(Sun,Mar27)─┘ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/dragonfetus/acer-predator-turbo-and-rgb-keyboard-linux-module/./facer_rgb.py", line 203, in <module> with open(CHARACTER_DEVICE, 'wb') as cd: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/dev/acer-gkbbl-0'

I tried reinstalling but it did not help.

I tried rebooting my laptop along with other things and the script works now. But after restart the colors go back to red and I have to run the script every time I restart.

there are two install modes, if you want the script to work after reboot, try installing it as service(systemd perhaps)

dragonfetus commented 2 years ago

I have installed it as a systemd service and as an openrc service , none of them works.

dragonfetus commented 2 years ago

the service created by the script is active (turbo-fan.service) but the colors do not stay permanent. The colors are fine when I reboot but go back to red when I completely power off and on my system.

I have fixed the issue by setting a cronjob to change the lights as a temporary fix, the service still does not work.
