    I don't know how handy you are but you can add your model into the clevo-xsm-wmi.c file. I did this for my Metabox P65xHP. The models are listed near the end of the file and look like this. 

    .ident = "Clevo N870HP6",
        .matches = {
            DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "N85_87HP6"),
        },
        .callback = clevo_xsm_dmi_matched,
        .driver_data = &kb_full_color_ops,

    Yours would need to look like this.

    #!

.ident = "Clevo N850EK",
        .matches = {
            DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "N8xEJEK"),
        },
        .callback = clevo_xsm_dmi_matched,
        .driver_data = &kb_full_color_ops,

    Once the addition is made to that file redo make and make install.

    Hey Gez, thanks for your reply! I actually just figured this out yesterday with some help from Metabox support and the Mint forums. You're right that's exactly what I needed to do, and I wrote up some instructions for any future users here.

    I was struggling with restoring the state too but as someone pointed out here the readme instructions left out the quotations for the command. Hope it helps :)
