I looked at the user manual for that keyboard and it is not mentioned at all how to turn off the backlights or if that is even possible. So DavidMcCann may be right here with his suspicion.

I would be glad that linux /proc or whatsoever could turn it off
I agree, you'd have to rip it open and unplug it. A BFH would do the trick too.
or just learn to live with it. OR you could read this first.
As I read it, the OP has the Exodus 2, which lacks the on/off switch the original Exodus had. Bad luck, I would think, who would think that they remove that.

that files webpage has the ver 2 in it that is why what I said all applies. Unless he knows how to use a stick soldering iron then he could attach an on off switch to it, or open it up and cut the wires to the light.
because by SATURN, there is no single LOGITECH that are wired!!!!
(you know wireless is the only thing to buy, or buy microsoft )
I'm using a LOGITECH mouse with a wire on it plugged into usb port and Linux... cut the wire play get a screw driver pry it open and cut the wire... the wire that sends power to all them lights that are driving you mad. Just CUT THE BLUE ONE that always works in the movies!!!! or was it the red one? I forget.
