Just got a new Razer mouse. Works great out of the box, as did the previous one. (They make great mice!) However I would like to have the option to control the chroma lighting. Mainly to turn off the lighting, or maybe set it to a solid colour. I’m a minimalist.
Has anybody gotten openrazer-meta to work? Does it work like it should?
Side question: has anybody gotten their wireless mouse to work with evdev passthrough?
Turns out wireless mouse works just fine with evdev. Initially had some trouble, cause I wasn’t using the “event-mouse”. Fixed that and evdev works perfectly.
Got openrazer installed, but it won’t start. I guess that’s because Viper Ultimate isn’t supported yet.
Viper Ultimate is supposed to be supported now in openrazer, but whenever I launch polychromatic, my device is still not recognised. Went through the trouble shooting pages, but couldn’t get it to work.
Hi,
I use Razer keyboards and mice as well. Setting them up in Linux wastes a lot of time but there is a shortcut “if you have Windows on one of your computers”.
Simply, set up the mouse on a Windows machine (with the Razer bloat software installed), then unplug it and move it to any Linux computer.
All of my peripherals remember the color setting during reboots.
Please run the command 'sudo gpasswd -a $USER plugdev' and then reboot!
systemctl --user enable --now openrazer-daemon.service
Also try the troubleshooting at:
Going to be honest, I got it working fine on my last install of Endeavour but I’m running into the same issue of my mouse not being recognised this time around. Mine is a Razer Mamba, non wireless and should be supported.
I have no idea what I did… maybe I just refreshed the pamac databases, but the 2.8 (non git) version appeared in there. I installed those and added my user to the dev group again. Rebooted. Restarted the daemon and now it works.
Managed to set the mouse RGB dim static color, but no effect on the hub/dock. I guess it’s not supported yet. But I think I can do that on my windows VM.
