Wayland keyboard LED

Mathew-D · 19 September 2020 20:57

When I was using x-11 I was able to use xset to turn on my keyboard led light but now that I am trying wayland I can’t find any way to turn them on. Can anyone help?

xset-led-wayland.sh

# "input0::scrolllock" might be different (?)
# On
sudo sh -c 'echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/input0::scrolllock/brightness'
# Off
# sudo sh -c 'echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/input0::scrolllock/brightness'

Thanks you I was able to modify that to at least turn them on, even it takes sudo to do it. Just in class anyone else tries if you turn num lock off after you set it you have to redo the command.
For me it was input21
