I am at a crossroads and was not sure if this a better fit under Linux or hardware, but I didn’t see a keyboard/mouse section at quick glance so, here you guy Linux section:
ckb-next has made it into the official Fedora repos
Mother.
F’ing
w00t
Y’all
If you have a Corsair keyboard or mouse and you’re using Linux AND you’re not using this software you definitely need to take a look.
I’ve built it from source for a while across Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and Arch Linux. Recently, I noticed a copr entry for Fedora and gave that a shot. It worked really well, but I still liked having the software locally for when/if I wanted to poke around at it and see how it worked.
ckb-next has upgraded from copr entry to full blown official Fedora repository. Out of the box just dnf install ckb-next and you’re all set.
The installation instructions are simple, once you get the dependencies, but it is really nice not having to mess with it on a new build now if I don’t want to.
Just for comparison, here are the previous instructions for Fedora:
sudo dnf install gcc gcc-c++ make cmake glibc zlib-devel qt5-qtbase-devel quazip-qt5-devel libappindicator-devel systemd-devel pulseaudio-libs-devel
git clone https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next.git
cd ckb-next
./quickinstall
Here are the new instructions:
sudo dnf install ckb-next
Hells yeah.
Here is a screenshot of the setup. You can see the keyboard and mouse are tabbed and they have some default profiles.
You can create a broad range of profiles as well as tweak the start up settings and defaults.
