ckb VS ckb-next

There are open-source alternatives that are much smaller. Depending on your model, this one might work for you: https://github.com/ccMSC/ckb

Corsair mice have a community driver (https://github.com/ccMSC/ckb) to setup rgb and so, but I am not a fan of the hardware itself.

Somehow in the Linux world, it is expected that random people on the Internet should have any old piece of hardware working just as well the companies that made the hardware, took your money, and paid a team to develop the software for Windows. For the most part, they do, sometimes even nicer than the official software.

EDIT: Realized that one is unmaintainted, so here’s a maintained one: https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next

There is unofficial software written for Linux to interact with the corsair keyboards, like the k95. https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next

You can control corsair keyboard rgb with https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next. Works fine on my ancient strafe keyboard and the assorted corsair mice I've used.

not sure. i use ckb-next which is for linux and only supports corsair devices as i have corsair ram and peripherals. i never really had any luck with openrgb tbh

ckb-next is for Corsair devices, and mostly is for RGB, but does offer mouse button configuration. I use this one with my M65 Elite as it also configures DPI level settings and other items, as well as per-led lighting.

Welcome to open source. Can I interest you in https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next ?

If you're on linux https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next is really good
