Razer device manager for Linux

Supported hardware

  • Keyboards
  • Macro keypads (Tartarus, Orbweaver)
  • Mice (only lighting effects, most macro features)
  • Laptops (keyboards only)
  • Headsets (possibly, untested)
  • Mousepads (Firefly)

Installing

To install this software the first thing you need is to install razer_drivers. You can find installation instructions on the project page.

You need 3 packages provided in the razer-drivers:

  • razer-driver-dkms: the actual driver, best if installed using DKMS
  • razer-daemon: a daemon that interfaces with the driver, providing a higher level interface for it
  • python3-razer: a python library that interfaces with the daemon, it's used by razerCommander, thus it's a direct dependency.

Installing on Arch Linux (or derivates: Antergos, Manjaro...)

You can find razerCommander on AUR, as razercommander-git (AUR page). If you use an AUR helper, it should automatically pull razer-driver-dkms, razer-daemon and python-razer as dependencies. Alternativelly you can install these packages manually, or even opt for the git version of the driver stack (razer-driver-dkms-git, razer-daemon-git, python-razer-git).

Installing on Ubuntu or Debian

Go to the releases page and download the latest release available for your platform.

Other distros

You'll need the following libraries to make razerCommander work:

  • GTK+>=3.14
  • python3
  • razer-driver-dkms
  • razer-daemon
  • python-razer

Download razerCommander by following these steps:

  • mkdir git && cd git (optional, but avoids cluttering your home folder)
  • git clone https://github.com/gabmus/razercommander
  • cd razercommander
  • chmod +x main.py

Running

Just run ./main.py from the razerCommander directory. You can also make a .desktop file to launch it from your DE/WM (an easy way to do it is using mlauncher).

How can you help?

Please, fill up issues and help me test this little piece of software with as much hardware as possible.
