Add suport for FA506IV #38

Closed lvalladares closed 4 years ago

lvalladares commented 4 years ago

Hey!

Here is the output of the commands you ask

lsusb |grep 0b05 EMPTY

sudo usbhid-dump No matching HID interfaces

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name TUF Gaming FA506IV_TUF506IV

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_family TUF Gaming FA506IV

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/board_name FA506IV

I think this output is´nt helpful. Let me know if i can run any other command.

rog-core won't ever be able to support the keyboard on this laptop (or any of the TUF series) because the keyboard is connected over a different bus. You will be able to use fan and battery control though (at which point I suggest using asus-nb-ctrl).

What exactly isn't working for you using the standard kernel?

lvalladares commented 4 years ago

Right now i'm using 5.7 Kernel and i cant change keyboard light, see or change fan speed, see or change battery limit (but i think its writed at kernel level, because change made in windows with armoury crate do take effect in linux)

For the light i've instaled Faustus and works nice. I'm waiting for kernel 4.8 to be moved from mainline to release to test if it fix something.

I've tried rog-core but i believe it checks for laptop model before trying to do anything because nothing seem to work and when i try to start the daemon it says my laptop its not compatible.

Faustus is what you should definitely be using. I will close this for now, a future release of this or asus-nb-ctrl will enable control of fan and battery charge limit if the kernel has support.
