Backlight ubuntu

Hello

I’m currently using the FW16 with Ubuntu.
I can’t turn on the backlight with the fn+space key.

What should I do?

I installed chromium, went to https://keyboard.frame.work/
I tried to connect the keyboard and I get these errors:

Hello,

I’d like to add that the backlight doesn’t work under Windows 11 either.
During Windows installation, the numeric keypad’s backlight came on. But not the keyboard.

Let me clarify:

  • The bios has been updated.
  • Your drivers have been installed.
  • Windows updates are done.
  • I’ve rebooted the PC several times.

Attached is a screenshot showing that windows and bios are up to date.

Many thanks in advance for your help.
