  • Full control of all LEDs is also working via the ec_sys module including modes: on, off, and blink for the following LEDs:
    • Red LED on back of screen
    • Power button LED
    • Red Charge LED
    • White Charge LED
    • Fn button LED
    • Microphone LED
    • CAPS lock LED
  • The one that is NOT working:
    • Mute LED
  • Screen backlight control is working via /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness (min=0, max=2047)
  • Keyboard LED backlight is configurable via /sys/class/leds/tpacpi::kbd_backlight/brightness (0=off, 1=medium, and 2=high)
