From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My laptop is the same except, I keep a Windows partition because the RGB keyboard controller is only available in a Windows app. That Windows partition exists in a post apocalyptic dystopia where Windows belongs; it has never, nor will ever see the internet. It is blocked my my network firewall. Windows is like a less than useful bootloader options tab.
Not knowing which keyboard laptop combo you have, but have you looked at openrgb? Works nicer than the stock tool I was using in my experience!
Would that work with my Aoris 3070 ti?
Don't know, but I'd just try it out and see if it works. It detected my motherboard, mouse, keyboard, everything. It was just such a relief after trying and failing to get the stock (windows only) software on linux running
Thank you! I'll give it a shot.
