Hey,
Could you please update the package for asusctl 6.3.5?

@initramfs Thanks for your response! I tried to edit this environment variable before but didn't success (I went a wrong way due to unfamaliarity with rustlog), so I posted a comment here. This patch does fix the logging problem. Thanks again for your timely reply, it helps a lot.

@84634E1A607A Issue was already submitted to upstream here:
https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl/-/issues/692
with fix in "main" branch here:
https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl/-/commit/6d8db915839872e22b7f14f3206fe10dc8f82e82
Given the fix is just adjusting the service environmental variable, you can attempt to apply the same patch by setting "Environment" to:
Environment=RUST_LOG="info,asusd=debug,rog_platform=debug,tracing::span=error"

Hi, I found today that asusd is spamming a lot of tracing logs in my journal,
Nov 15 23:04:43 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:44 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:45 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:46 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:47 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:48 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:49 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
Nov 15 23:04:50 l asusd[10393]: [INFO tracing::span] read_socket;
It looks like debugging log is somewhat enabled. I found
Environment=RUST_LOG="debug"
in /usr/lib/systemd/system/asusd.service, Line 9; but changing it to error yeilds no improvement.
I politely request attention to remove the debug log, thanks for your time and patience.
Hmm... I investigated a bit and found no evidence that the AUR PKGBUILD enables the debug log. Maybe we'll have to dig into the code and disable it.

@yochananmarqos Good to know! I'll look into that over the weekend (apparently the dependencies also need an update). Just right now, a bit in need of quality-time, without work. :)
yochananmarqos commented on 2025-10-08 20:10 (UTC)
@fabiscafe: The Makefile changed, so the _pick function is no longer necessary.
asusctl package function:
make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install-asusd install-asusctl install-asusd_user \
install-data-asusd install-data-asusd_user
rog-control-center package function:
make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install-rog_gui install-data-rog_gui

Looking for a co-maintainer! (who is made out of flesh and bones)
