Sadly, most of these do not have drivers for Linux. Below is some code that allows control of the backlight on all keyboards I've tested (mainly XtremeIT series, but it does also work on a few other models) #!/bin/bash if [ -f /tmp/keyboard_light ]; then xset -led 3 && rm /tmp/keyboard_light else xset led 3 && touch /tmp/keyboard_light fi I would ask this is put into Ubuntu, if only to provide a cleaner experience.
