Is there a way to disable the white charging light on the side of the computer? This is for the white charging indicator on the side of the computer specifically, NOT the fingerprint led.
edit, tried running
sudo fw-ectool led left off
to
EC returned error result code 3
edit; solution,
sudo fw-ectool led battery off
Hi @onlycs,
Welcome to the Community! Is that a parameter that is accessible in the EC? There is another forum post for exploring the embedded controller. I have not read through all of it. If you search for it it should pop up near top. That would be an interesting feature to enable/disable, or if it has the ability to lower the voltage going to the LED (i.e. make it dimmer)
From what I’ve gathered:
$ sudo ectool led left query
EC result 3 (INVALID_PARAM)
Brightness range for LED 3:
Error: Unsupported LED.
$ sudo ectool led test query
Bad LED name: test
Valid LED names: battery power adapter left right recovery_hwreinit sysrq debug
Battery seems to be able to turn on both LEDs simultaneously but I’m not near a charger to test if sudo ectool led battery off will turn off the LED while charging.
worked, thanks!
