updated today and reflashed kalico. that went fine
updated LED_EFFECTS and it was throwing errors.
apparently klipper changed a few things with function names:
chain.led_helper._check_transmit()
has become check_transmit(None)
and so on.
it looks like led.py, neopixel.py, and pcaxxx.py just needs cherry picked and it should fix things, but i have no idea to be honest.
@julianschill was helping me fix it, and removing the _ before check_transmit and adding None as the arg fixes things.
