Backlit LED Keyboard Not Lighting Up When Connected To My Linux Machine

THIS WILL NOT SUPPORT OR EDIT MAC OR WINDOWS... SORRY. KEEP CALM AND INSTALL LINUX. Linux ONLY instructional video. CTRL-ALT-T quickly brings up the terminal in Peppermint Linux, and some other Linux distros. That being said: Did you buy a keyboard that is supposed to be "backlit", or otherwise is supposed to light up using LED? Did you plug it into your Ubuntu-or-derivative-thereof Linux machine and the thing doesn't light up? Don't send it back yet... try this first. NOTE- you will have to do this EVERY TIME you want to light up the keyboard. This approach has been tried by me personally on Peppermint 8, but I imagine it will work on most Ubuntu-based distros. It's easy, it only takes a second, so try it.
