Model: Predator PH315-55

Count of keyboard RGB zones: 4

Count of Cpu Fans: 0

Count of Gpu Fans: 2 ? at least that's what I think

RGB keyboard works? Yes\No No, used to work but stopped working after an update.

Turbo button turn on fans? Yes\No No, Not concerned about turbo mode. RGB is what I want it working again.

Turbo button turn on LED? Yes\No No

Turbo button activates overclock? Yes\No No

System used to work fine for a few months, but after a recent update (3 days ago), it suddenly stopped. Dual boot with Win11/PopOS. I tried everything, also checked in other issues, nothing.

additional info: when I try to uninstall , this error pops up : sudo ./uninstall.sh rmmod: ERROR: Module facer is not currently loaded Update: After tryting to install without it being any service (normal one, without reboot), it is working, but I suspect it'll revert after rebooting.

whenever you update your kernel, modules need to be recompiled. Other modules are automatically. I think because the kernel module is a custom one. It needs to recompiled manually. Simply uninstall and ignore the error and then reinstall with the service. Your error will be fixed. It needs to be done whenever the kernel is updated.

is it possible to create some kind of hook or service so this is automatic done when kernel updates?
