I've found a script which relates to the back lights in etc/acpi, I was hoping I would find a asus folder in the led directory but I do not.
The easiest way to determine whether your computer is equipped with a backlit keyboard is to look at the F10, F6, or right arrow key (located in the lower right-hand corner). If I suspend the system and resume, they switch on until I power off. Depending on the model of your Dell computer and the features that are installed, it may or may not have a backlit keyboard. Weirdly, my system starts up with the back light disabled. I'm trying to get my keyboard back lights working with the keyboard short cuts, or even at all and so far have been unsuccessful with the xset function I've read about online. This in its self has presented its own problems but I have updated my kernel to 5.8 to overcome issues with it. I'm new to Linux and I'm trying to get my dual boot system set up (Asus Rog laptop with AMD Ryzen 7 and NVIDIA GPU).
