Laptop N850HP6 detected but not working
Issue #45
resolved
Hi there, I'm in the need of some help from the community. I have a Seager N850HP6 notebook. I just compiled the branch which adds support for N850 / N870 HP6. (by Christian Loritz )
I was able to compile the module, load it, compile the app.. but nothing happens when trying to change the lights.
Here is the requested information as for the issue:

I also read the post #43 but it seems not to be my case as my model is detected under dmidecode | grep Name
Any help or advise would be appreciated! Thanks all. Lucas

Apply same workaround as on #32. The branch adding support to model N850_70HP6 seems not to have the correction for kernels above 4.14

Nevermind! Solved the issue by applying the workaround on #32.
was 0x01. Changing to 0x00 and recompiling did the trick.
Thanks for this module and to support this model!
