i think that was it, thank you! I must have enabled smart contrast which does that.

the classic cronjob workaround works great.

The command /usr/bin/openrgb --profile /home/user/.config/OpenRGB/test.orp runs fine, loads the test.orp setting i saved with openrgb-GUI. Until the keyboard goes back to default after 4 min or so.

Therefore i made a cronjob that does the same, just every 3 minutes: */3 * * * * /usr/bin/openrgb --profile /home/user/.config/OpenRGB/test.orp

correction: nevermind it does not work. Again. They keyboard just resets itself after like a minute, regardless. Don’t understand what is happening.

I am so sorry to everybody here who never saw the real agile. Yours was likely just wasabi scrum.

It works fine now. Uninstalled the openRGB flatplak from the kde neon app store (discover) and instead installed the .deb from the openrgb-website. Now it works with static dimmed LEDs. NICE!
