I followed the DKMS route but my keyboard backlight is still not working. Here are some information:

# dkms --version

I still get the error above under Fedora 32 and with version 2.0.2. What does

No known WMI event notification GUID found

mean? modprobe ends with the following error message:

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'tuxedo_keyboard': No such device

This means that the module didn't find what it needs to get the key events and control the keyboard backlight. It is not used for all kinds of backlight. At the moment it supports the "multicolor areas" type.

I own an InfinityBook 14v1 that came with Ubuntu and a working white keyboard backlight. After installing Fedora everything worked just fine out of the box, except for the keyboard backlight. Do you know how I get it to work under Fedora?
