Impact/Questions
The system does boot, but I am concerned about the probe with driver asus failed with error -12.
- Is this a known issue with the G14 (2021) on CachyOS?
- Does this error mean a specific input device (like the touchpad or function keys) is not initializing correctly?
Thank you for looking into this.
