Razer's devices use a VID (Vendor ID) of 1532. You can identify the USB PID (Product ID) by typing:
lsusb | grep '1532:'
This will output something similar to this:
Bus 003 Device 005: ID 1532:0203 Razer USA, Ltd
Those of you on Ubuntu 16.10, some of you on 16.04 and at least some arch users might notice that even though your device is listed as supported it doesnt appear on any of the supporting applications. Udev is not playing ball. Look at this comment and run it. Am currently working on a little service that should bind devices and set up the permissions like udev would.
I've created a daemon that lives in userspace which allows one to easily interact with the driver. It abstracts away some of the logic and also (will eventually) allow you to build custom effects, though it does do mulitcoloured ripples :). As every device is slightly different I've maintained a mapping between devices supported by the driver and devices supported by the daemon. If your device is supported by the driver but not by the daemon then raise an issue.
Packages are available for these distributions:
Other distributions can manually install using these instructions.
The following applications complement and interact with this driver:
- Polychromatic - a graphical management tool and tray applet to managing Razer peripherals.
- MacroW - a simple tool to record and play keyboard macros. (though the dameon does on the fly recording ;) )
- RazerCommander - Simple GUI written in Gtk3
- Driver: Release Candidate
- Daemon: Beta
- Client Library: Beta
- Packages: Beta
##Contributions
Some guys have already donated to the cause. ;-) Feel free. The parent of the fork had a list of what would be done if money was donated. I don't need the money (though you can never have enough right ;-) ), but obviously its a great motivator. If you want you device and your not willing to get one to me then if your willing to follow this then support can be added.
