    Hello! I am trying to have the OpenRGB goes light off on a keyboard from a MSI laptop with Linux Mint 21.2. I can’t find a way to have to light goes off during lock screen, screensaver or don’t touch the keyboard or the mouse for a certain ammount of time. There is a way to have that work like that?

      This is not a feature in OpenRGB, though it could be added as a plugin or external script. If you can detect this event in a script, you can call openrgb --color black from the script to turn off the lights.

        Thank you openrgb --color black Doesn’t work. It load the program, not change the LED color. It possible to do with $ openrgb -p Red after I saved a profile with the color to load. Or “Off” if i want to turn off the keyboard. OpenRGB see the keyboard even if return an error with i2c that are actually loaded.

        I can also read the keyboard feedback with evemu-record but I lack the capability to do a scrip with this command. Anyone know how to use it?

          The i2c message can be ignored if all your devices use USB. I2C is pretty much only used by RGB RAM, GPUs, and some older motherboards. Mystic Light motherboards use USB.
