Hi,

I needed to change my machine to a new one (tuxedo gen9), and I quickly installed my distro of choice (manjaro-gnome), and configured it as the old machine (I am very conservative on this… I do not like the change as it introduces some friction in my workflow… I even have the same wallpaper from the last 10 years, heh :P).

Turns out, I am unable to “see” some options of the gnome-shell that were present in my older machine:

  • keyboard backlight regulation (and it works, as I am able to regulate it with fn+space)
  • background apps

I would like to bave them back… any hint on what I can be missing ?

    I’m using Gnome 47 and I can adjust the keyboard brightness of my laptop in the menu top right. I don’t think, I did any special adjustments. Is this what you were looking for?

        So I guess it’s not a Gnome thing, but an underlying driver, HW thing…

          but I cannot see background tasks either. I was suspecting it was something with the shell version or some missing shell extension :(
