    Keyboard backlight color/uptime control by any means necessary!

    Unfortunatelly I've already tried all of the options above; maybe I've installed them wrongly, though I doubt since the guides were clear and no errors were returned (execept the keyboard matching off course). I'll try contacting the support and see if they have a "commercial" name for this...

    Keyboard backlight color/uptime control by any means necessary!

    Greetings. I own an A70 HYB Standard, produced by Avell, a brazilian Clevo re-seller. The laptop comes with a RGB membrane backlit keyboard whose properties I wish to manipulate. Quick Set-up/Arch install configuration just in case it's needed: Hardware Host: A70 HYB Standard GPU: Intel Alder...

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    Hello everyone! Last update: I had another hard crash in which I had to hold the power button for 10 seconds. After contacting the support and doing some extra tests (benchmark, etc...), they concluded that due to the nature of the issue and its characteristics, it was probably related to the...

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    Hello once again. I have some updates. Some days ago W10 send me a notification saying I should restart in order to 'correct errors from the unit'. I did as the system said, and since that I did not have any issue regarding the instabilities. I can still find the 'GCUBridge stopped working' in...

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    Another behavior that I noticed is the fans' noise. On Windows the fans' noise is way louder than they were under Linux. When thinking about it I remember that I use the thermald daemon to control the temperature. Could this have something to do with the issue?

    Yes I could send my laptop for them to take a look, however I'll wait a little bit more. I'll give a whole week for testing and see if I'm forced to hard reboot or not. Because if Windows can recover, why can't Linux? I also need to try other arch-base distribution as you said.

    Both happen with the same frequency. The only difference is that on Windows stuff come back to work, while on Linux they just stop.

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    Hello. So I've been using W10 for a while and some weird stuff happen: First the screen would go black for some time and them come back shortly after. Looking over this ''reliability history" I found out this critical event: 'GCUBridge stopped working'. When clicking on 'exhibit details', it...

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    Good night everyone. The SSD is here and already on the run. I'm sending this message from W10, I just arrived from work. Haven't experienced any crashes yet. I'll be making the heavy experiments tomorrow, just passed by to say I'm still alive!

    Who said give up? I’m not going to give up. I’m going to try other distributions, that’s why I’ll back up my /home, so my .conf files will be saved. I’ll try PopOs! first, heard their graphics support is good.

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    Yes! Finally had some time... Let me tell ya, you don't want to be a teacher at the beginning/final of the year, that's for sure. I'm indeed waiting for the SSD. I talked about booting from an USB with the support, and they said its not the same as a SSD/HDD. I'll see if I have time to backup...

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    It was the first thing I tried. After running out of resources in there, I went straight to the Arch forum.

    Sorry not yet. I’ll try to make a live version of Debian ASAP. Didn’t have time due to my work.

    [SOLVED] Random Full System Crashes on Arch Installation :(

    No. Nothing worked. No TTY. No Magic Keys, nothing... The issue that I took a picture was an exception. That was the only time I could move my mouse + keyboard.
