At first, install clevo-xsm-wmi-dkms, then clevo-xsm-wmi-util

Patches for Clevo N950TP6 laptop and orange color support have been added.


After you have installed clevo-xsm-wmi-util, do the following in your terminal:

Enable Clevo XSM WMI service:

sudo systemctl enable clevo-xsm-wmi.service
sudo systemctl start clevo-xsm-wmi.service

If you don't intend to reboot your computer, do the following in your current session:

sudo modprobe clevo-xsm-wmi

Launch the Clevo keyboard configuration utility with sudo or graphical sudo (kdesu, gksu etc.):

sudo /usr/bin/clevo-xsm-wmi

You need root rights to alter keyboard lightning!


NOTE: At the moment of writing this, only changing keyboard colors & turning on/off the lightning works. I could not set any modes or alter keyboard brightness via the utility.

NOTE:

I am using KDE desktop environment. Therfore, I use kdesu command in my clevo-xsm-wmi-util.desktop file. If you use GTK or other desktop environment, change the sudo part of the Exec part to suit your needs. For example, I have

Exec=kdesu /usr/bin/clevo-xsm-wmi
