Asus Proart P16 keyboard function keys and backlight support

Just purchased a new Asus Proart P16 with an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor and 64GB’s of ram.

CachyOS works well with the exception of two issues.

I’ve attempted to install asusctl however upon installing and enabling the asusd systemd service, any issued commands just core dump.

Given that this laptop is essentially the same as the new Zepherus G16, I’m wondering whether anyone with a similar laptop has found a way to enable the function keys and backlight control?

I wonder if the cachyos kernel also includes the asus wmi drivers?

Would like to update this thread.
Appears significant progress has been made on resolving P16 linux compatibility issues.
The following link documents the details:

A patch has been created to resolve the keyboard backlighting and function keys being disabled and appears to work for those few who have tested:

@ptr1337 Any chance this patch could be added to the cachyos kernel patch sets, would be grateful if possible?
