Just an FYI, that something seems to be amiss with Kernel 6.6.

I run OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my Darter Pro.

I’ve found that, starting with early kernel 6.6 releases (and up to at least 6.6.1) the path '/sys/class/leds/system76_acpi::kbd_backlight` no longer exists, and the keyboard backlight is no longer controllable (and defaults to off). Kernel 6.5.9 is the most recent version I’ve found that works.

There are no relevant kernel configuration changes that I can see between then and now, as packaged by opensuse.

The following is in my dmesg buffer post-boot on this 6.6.1 kernel:
