    I got a clevo some time ago and to my displeasure i discovered that hideous looking light control software by clevo.

    I am in the process of rewriting a light controller suite from scratch. Right now i have a fully working version, expect a release soon. i've been talking with pizzadude223 too so expect nice things in the future :)

    However i suck at graphics. If any of you guys is interested in designing a layout drop me a line

    Really looking forward to seeing what you two can develop. If there's a way to just isolate that hideous trackpad logo and turn it off, I think a lot of people would love to see that. :)

    Awesome! I have just installed the pizzadude software and I loved it, keep the good work guys! I don't know if you guyscanachieve this but maintaining the colors/profile during start-up/restart would be amazing too!

    Yeah you might want to work with pizzadude and incorporate each others' tech. The temperature lighting is awesome.

    This is very awesome! I can't wait to test it out once it's released. I wonder if it would work in Win8 as I've transitioned. I can beta test if possible. Specs on sig

    Ill volunteer my NP9170. I tried pizzadude's app, but i enjoy the random lighting setting the most. Would love to be able to control what colors display on startup/reboot as well
