[solved]: gHub-GUI seems outdated. openRGP does what i need instead.

Hi, i’d like to use my Logitech G915 LEDs properly under KDE neon and since logitech only provides for Win or Mac, someone recommended gHUB-GUI. github.com/ysph/gHub-GUI

I tried the little installation instructions on github.com/ysph/gHub-GUI but something does not seem to work. This is not my first git app(?), but the first one i can’t seem to use. I tried to ask ChatGPT but it…

spoiler

poured kerosene all over itself, jumped head first off the autobahn bridge, got ran over by a Lastkraftwagen, biting a cyanide pill. That

…didn’t help.

Can anybody please point me in the right direction? I am fine with the CLI. I cloned the project, Installed those mentioned dependencies, but ~/gHub-GUI$ make all returns

gcc -g main.o mouselist.o -o ghub-gui -lusb-1.0. And i dont kow what that means.

Thanks!

See if you have a file called ghub-gui in that directory now. If it’s there then you compiled it, type ./ghub-gui to try running it.

~$ sudo ./ghub-gui
Error: Cannot find any logitech mouse. LIBUSB_SUCCESS / LIBUSB_TRANSFER_COMPLETED

aha, i think it is installed but something else doesn’t work. Well, i do have a logitech mouse but that is not what i am going to manage with that app. Its about my keyboard.

It looks like that is only for a mouse though, plus it hasn’t been updated at all in a year and not much going on for several years before that.

If it’s a unifying kind you should have solaar for sure, if not then install it.

at least it runs and recognizes my hardware. But it crashes a lot and none of the settings seem to have an effect. Had to run it as root to get it to see my periferals, but thats ok to me

Have you tried OpenRGB yet?

klay@lemm.ee on 31 May 14:52 collapse

no, but that looks good. Gonna give it a try.

edit. that did it! Finally, just static lighting. Thanks!

Sweet glad to hear it!

argh but the keyboard still goes back to its default settings, which i wanted to get rid of, after a few minutes.

Darn, I have no idea what could be causing that :c sorry friend!

It works fine now. Uninstalled the openRGB flatplak from the kde neon app store (discover) and instead installed the .deb from the openrgb-website. Now it works with static dimmed LEDs. NICE!

correction: nevermind it does not work. Again. They keyboard just resets itself after like a minute, regardless. Don’t understand what is happening.

I manage my G502 with Piper, which does support the G915. While it’ll do LEDs, I manage the LEDs on mine via OpenRGB.
