Ah, the joy of Arch Linux - I installed node.js via the easy method of "pacman -S node.js" I have the keyboard automatically colorize on startup via a bash script and xinitrc, but you could do the same with Gnome or KDE Autostart commands. I also found a Plasma widget text launcher to launch any bash script. As a result, I made 7 different profiles for the keyboard using such scripts. One for off, white, green red, red-hot (intensity to the max), rainbow - Red Green Blue, rainbow2 - Red Yellow Blue. Here's my post on G+ showing what it looks like on my desktop: https://plus.google.com/+JeffHatfield/posts/7PgHE4SVdaP Now that I think about it, I could link the bash scripts to the QuickLauncher widget and use custom color icons to indicate which keyboard theme I wanted... I would like to get keyboard mapping much like the Sager laptops have so that I could use my Fn key to cycle through the colors, but have not discovered how to do that yet. My system also has the softkey for eject and I'd like to get that working, but I resorted to mapping it into the text widget using the ">" symbol to indicate eject. cheers!
