rogauracore VS acer-predator-turbo-and-rgb-keyboard-linux-module

To increase/decrease my keyboard brightness and/or change its color: rogauracore

asusauracore: https://github.com/wroberts/rogauracore

Got rogauracore to work after all by trying a second time, following the instructions here.

Context: I just built my first PC and decided to go with linux/ubuntu operating system. I was trying it out for a couple days and I recently tryed installing some software from github, https://github.com/wroberts/rogauracore but i didn't know how to uninstall it so i ran "sudo apt-get purge rogauracore" in the terminal and restarted my computer but instead of loading the desktop it just "reads /dev/nvme0n1p5: clean, 305889/122068992 files, 12308882/488247296 blocks"

I tried this https://github.com/wroberts/rogauracore but it "Could not find ROG Aura Core keyboard" I assume I'll have issues then with the corsair specific RGB programs too?

I don't know if this helps, but there's this github page.

Edit: Imgur image looks bad… here’s a Google Drive link… https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ILom9sopJQxUHEMzDBaOUMD8LOn0my8b/view?usp=drivesdk Edit 2: For whoever wants to view it on Google Drive, I made the link public now, sorry… The whole day after removing the kernel module, no panicks occurred, guess it’s fixed? I opened an issue on GitHub.

Every thing works as it should for me now. here's the thread where I found the original solution: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=130505 for any one trying to get full functionality out of their AN515-58 on Linux here's a link to a kernel module that allows you to control the rgb lights in the keyboard:https://github.com/JafarAkhondali/acer-predator-turbo-and-rgb-keyboard-linux-module/tree/main

I have a Acer Predator Helios 300 PH315-54 and when I click the scan devices button my keyboard doest appear. I found some people online saying that this works but I have windows and not linux so idk what to do.

try this FOSS programm: https://github.com/JafarAkhondali/acer-predator-turbo-and-rgb-keyboard-linux-module I've managed to get it working today as I needed it to change lights because keyboard light wasn t persistent after a shutdown(it was after a reboot tho, surprisingly enough).

https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/659095/nitro-5-ans515-45-is-there-any-way-to-change-the-backlight-color-of-the-keyboard-on-linux which leads to https://github.com/JafarAkhondali/acer-predator-turbo-and-rgb-keyboard-linux-module
