gnome backlight control not showing up

submitted 4 weeks ago by estebanlm@lemmy.ml edited 4 weeks ago

Hi,
I already asked this in a gnome community but I was unable to get an answer since the issue is more complex than it seems (and I really do not want to go to r*ddt, heh) :)
I run arch with gnome in a tuxedo infinibook 14 gen 9 (intel) and since this is a recent model, there are things that does not seems to be working out of the box... specially when installing another distro than the ones they recomment (which are a no-go for me because of two main reasons: I want arch, I want gnome).

Anyway, here one of the problems: *I cannot get the keyboard backligth control of gnome to work, the one that should show up in the gnome shell does not shows up. Even if I can control it by command line (or even with fn+space).*

I know, this is not a huge issue but I want my desktop to work fine (I have other small problems I need to see, but I am stuck with this one :)

Any hint?

thanks!

EDIT: Is Infinibook pro 14 gen 9, heh

I know it's been a while, but I recently saw an article where tuxedo create their own firmware, so you might need to look into that.

The article is all about a GPL license problems tuxedo were facing because they create their own firmware using a a different license - not sure how thatls affects you, but that might be the root issue

hello, thanks for your answer and sorry for late acknowledge :P
yes... sadly there is still no response but as my other problems are solved and I just have now the backlight control issue remaining, I will patiently wait until gnome+tuxedo drivers go back in agreement :)
