Here Im too with this clevo model P775DM3(-G):

$ dmesg | grep clevo [ 3.184798] clevo_xsm_wmi: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel. [ 3.188027] input: Clevo Airplane-Mode Hotkey as /devices/platform/clevo_xsm_wmi/input/input7 [ 3.188053] clevo_xsm_wmi: Polling thread started (PID: 238), polling at 5 Hz [ 3.189100] clevo_xsm_wmi clevo_xsm_wmi: hwmon_device_register() is deprecated. Please convert the driver to use hwmon_device_register_with_info().

Any solution or suggestion?

The module seems be loaded fine:

And this command didnt work: sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/clevo-xsm-wmi.conf <<< options clevo-xsm-wmi kb_color=white,white,white kb_brightness=1 The keyb dont change color.

The gui "sudo clevo-xsm-wmi" also didnt apply any change.
