missing zones (Logo & Lightbar)

ROG Strix G16 (G614FR, aura type 19b6) – missing zones (Logo & Lightbar)


System info

  • Laptop: ROG Strix G16 (G614FR)(2025)
  • Fedora: 42
  • Kernel: (6.15.9-201.fc42.x86_64)
  • asusctl: 6.1.12
  • Product family: ROG Strix G16
  • Board name: G614FR
  • Aura type detected: 19b6

Problem

On Linux with asusctl, only the keyboard zone is available and only Static mode works.

Other zones such as rear logo and front lightbar are not exposed.
On Windows, these zones are controllable with Armoury Crate.


Logs

journalctl -b -u asusd shows:

[WARN rog_aura::aura_detection] the aura_support.ron file has no entry for this model: G614FR, 19b6. Using a default

asusctl -s:

Supported Aura Modes: [ Static, ] Supported Aura Zones: []


Steps tried

  • BIOS reset, BIOS update → no change
  • asusctl reinstall from copr repo → no change
  • Windows dual boot → Aura zones configurable there, but not exposed in Linux

Request

Please add support for aura type 19b6 (G614FR) into aura_support.ron so that Logo and Lightbar zones become available on Linux.

Happy to test patches and provide additional logs / EC dumps if needed.

Thanks in advance 🙏
