I built this after installing Fedora on a Vivobook S14 and realizing the keyboard RGB was stuck on white.
None of the usual ASUS tools worked because the keyboard wasn’t using the typical ASUS control path. It turns out the controller exposes a standard HID LampArray interface instead.
This tool just talks directly to that interface through hidraw. No kernel patches, no daemons, no vendor utilities.
Currently confirmed working on:
- Vivobook S14 (ITE5570 controller)
It scans hidraw devices and selects the matching controller automatically, so other ASUS laptops using the same controller may work.
If anyone tries it on other hardware, I’d really appreciate debug output:
