Why the hell do Gaming Hardware brands make drivers for Mac, but not for Linux?
So if a very skilled developer reverse engineer a driver for some brands (OpenRazer as an example), I feel better about it especially if it's open source.

Razer mouse does not charge (on dock) when computer is locked but powered on and not suspended.
What a interesting device. As I searching I found mousepad has different device id than mouse itself. this driver may solve your problems. If problem continues could you please share system info with upload-system-info from terminal and sudo lspci -v

Dead by Daylight's Steam Deck Support is Official. Confirmed to Us by Behaviour Interactive.
Yeah I would take piper over any of that bloated peripheral software anyway, gets the job done. There's also other community projects like OpenRazer. For a keyboard I grabbed a System76 Launch, it's a bit pricey but it's super nice and fully customizable via an appimage.
- OpenRazer Release v3.6.0

Corsair requires the installation of iCue (1.1GB) in order to keep their keyboards running correctly.
EDIT: Realized that one is unmaintainted, so here’s a maintained one: https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next

I haven't been fully indoctrinated yet, as my room still receives sunlight
There is unofficial software written for Linux to interact with the corsair keyboards, like the k95. https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next

Why Use Linux?
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.
- Alternatives for icue?

My RAM light permanently not working now after running OpenRGB for 3 days on new PC Build
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
- GTFO you over-bloated Christmas tree blinking light manager

Gaming mouse software in kubuntu?
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.
