  • piper

    GTK application to configure gaming devices (by libratbag)

    I have been using Logitech for years and you can just install Piper to make use of the features like the profiles, configuring the mouse sensitivity, the colors, etc. There is also g810-led. I also wrote my own tool to play around with their HID++ protocol, but never got around to finishing it.

  • g810-led

    Linux led controller for Logitech G213, G410, G413, G512, G513, G610, G810, g815, G910 and GPRO Keyboards

  • lm-sensors

    lm-sensors repository

    OpenRGB required a kernel patch, because it is trying to interface over I2C from userspace and one of the I2C controllers it needed support for didn't have a functional driver in the kernel yet. One of the biggest problems with the I2C bus, is that the kernel misses a lot of drivers for the various I2C controllers because the data sheets are usually not publicly available. This is also why lm-sensors often has trouble detecting your temperature sensors on various motherboards, because everything is in place, except for the driver to actually set up the I2C controller and send/receive the data over the I2C bus for you. See the description where it talks about the Nuvoton NCT6775, that is just to add support for that particular I2C controller.
