Clevo P751ZM keyboard Backlight

Issue #6 resolved
Mo Magu created an issue

Hey! I've got a Clevo P751ZM, sadly your driver isn't supporting this device. What works is the airplanemode LED. The Clevo P751ZM has 3 RGB Areas on the keyboard and a RGB lightbar on the front. To control the light it has 4 Keys, Fn+; ON|OFF, switch mode, brightness up and down.

If i can do anything to get this device supported, tell me 😄

Thank you!

    Good news! The driver does support your device.

    Bad news! Your DMI reports an empty string for the field that's used by the module to check for the models that are supported. I've made a build that checks fields specific to your model's DMI, please give it a try.

    Wow, hero of the day!

    It works! Partially at least.With the GUI I can control the color of each area. But the different modes aren't working. With the keys i can switch them. The GUI shows the current mode on startup.

    I personally don't need the modes.

    Thank You very much! 👍
