@adiadi2 I see, I was expecting the issue to be that the Fn combo didn't work at all and didn't notice it not actually changing the brightness.

This is a bug and only openSUSE folks have fixed it(I mean backported it, kernel v5.12 should fix it with amdgpu.backlight=0 kernel param). Please see the below git repo for more info.

There is a workaround without patching the kernel, Please see https://github.com/antony-jr/lenovo-legion5-15arh05-scripts

I‘m new to linux but from reading your .sh file, I suppose one has to have at least version 5.8 of kernel? I'm currently using Ubuntu 18.04 with 5.4.0-74 generic so I got to first install 5.8 or 5.9?

Does the touchpad workaround in your repo require that kernel version must be 5.12.x?

No workaround is required in 5.12.x(Touchpad works without any workaround in this version) but for linux kernel below 5.12.x you need the workaround.

@yashpatel1392 Nope. Ubuntu 18.04 is not supported. You need at least linux kernel 5.11. Better try some rolling distro like Manjaro Linux. You can try this but I highly recommend you to use linux kernel 5.12 or above for legion laptops.

Thanks for the response. I have updated my kernel to be 5.12. So, should your solution work?

I have recently purchased Lenovo Legion 5i Pro, I am trying to run Ubuntu 18.04, but the touchpad doesnt work at all. I tried all the fixes online, can you please try to explain me how to get it working or how to use your fix to get is working?

@yashpatel1392 Nope. Ubuntu 18.04 is not supported. You need at least linux kernel 5.11. Better try some rolling distro like Manjaro Linux. You can try this but I highly recommend you to use linux kernel 5.12 or above for legion laptops.

su # Make yourself root user.
cd /sys/class/gpio/
echo 386 > export
cd gpio386
echo out > direction
# Your touchpad should start working

Thanks for the response. I have updated my kernel to be 5.12. So, should your solution work?

@yashpatel1392 With linux kernel 5.12 you DO NOT NEED ANY workaround at all. Maybe you just disabled your touchpad with F10?
