Hello there,

Have you tried it installing it as a service?

I also have the same issue sometimes when i installed it using the "Install One Time Method", i happen to repeat the installing via ./install.sh and ./install_service.sh and that just caused error similar to this, i had to remove the directory and try again, also before attempting i have disabled Secure Boot and TPM, and i have the same model and bios version as you, what worked for me is to install it as "Install as a systemd service" and i have to use the ./facer_rgb.py command every startup, i wanted to turn off the rgb during the day, i am using Manjaro and have nbfc installed along side the service, the program works as expected except no turbo mode of course, clicking the nitro button does nothing.
