Is there a way to solve the following optimization problem in Sage given in https://www.ohjelmointiputka.net/postit/tehtava.php?tunnus=muslam :
The following is an example case.
I have $n=120$ lamps in a circle, and enumerated by $L_1,\ldots,L_{120}$. Some of them are switched on and some of them are switched off. I also have been given a positive integer $m=7.$ One every turn I choose one lamp $L_i$ and then the lamps $L_{i-m},\ldots,L_{i+m}$ will change their state, I mean if lamp $L_j$ was turned off then now it is turned on and vice versa. Indexes are modulo $n$ so the lamps $L_{118}, L_{119}, L_1,L_2$ are consecutive.
Which switches one must press, if the initial states of the lamps are (from $L_1$ to $L_{120}$)

0000100110010100010010110111000000010110
where $1$ means that the corresponding lamp is on at the beginning and $0$ means that the corresponding lamp is off at the beginning.
All cases in this problem are given as
label, n.o. lamps, how many lamps original lamp states
a switch affects
per direction

I know there is a solution that compputes the minimum number of switch presses in https://ask.sagemath.org/question/39335/how-to-find-a-minimum-number-of-switch-presses-to-shut-down-all-lamps/ . But the next task is to list those switches I need to press.
I tried
room = []
input = []
m = []
room.append('I')
input.append('1110111111101000100110011001100110100000001010001100011110110011111100000101000010101101100111001000100110110101111000110101101000010000100110111101001001011010110100100111011000110001101011110100110011010111110101010100')
m.append(27)
F = GF(2)
L_init = vector(F,input[0])
d = len(L_init)
M = matrix(F,d,d)
for i in range(d):
for j in range(-m[0],m[0]+1 ):
M[i,(i+j) % d] = 1
I = M.solve_right(L_init)
K = M.right_kernel()
best = None
for k in K:
A = (I+k).nonzero_positions()
B= []
if len((I+k).nonzero_positions()) < best or best == None:
S = room[0] + ' '
best = len((I+k).nonzero_positions())
for i in range(len(A)):
S +=str(int(A[i])+1) + ' '
print(S)
print("Optimal")
but this seems to be too slow. It has printed only

after couple of days computation. So how can I found the optimal solution faster?
