I will now employ my telepathic powers of remote viewing to try and
sense what your keyboard looks like.

I'm sensing....
A definite...
hmm

let me see

Yes, I sense that the keyboard has only a "caps lock" and a "num lock"
status lights (I'm not sure whether it has the useless "f-lock" light).
It has no "scroll lock" status light.

Am I right?

If I am, here's what I think happened. The "back light" is actually the
scroll lock status led. The keyboard "magically knows" when to turn it
on because the computer tells it to turn on the scroll lock status led.
What you need is a way to turn on the scroll lock status without having
it actually turn on scroll lock. Your problem, in a nutshell, is that
the scroll lock button (and status led) are not as useless on Linux as
they are on Windows.

Hopefully, now that you know what to ask, you will be able to find an
answer.

Who wonders why the keyboard needs any windows driver at all
