razercfg does not detect devices

Wilson Phillips · 2022-07-12 15:41:43

This is a fresh install of Arch. Installed from the archinstall guided helper. I have also installed Arch the regular way and had the same issue. I have an nVidia GTX 2070 Super, so I cannot run Wayland to test it there.

I installed razercfg from the Arch repositories and have also tried it from the AUR. Same result.

I can detect the devices on my own. Example.

lsusb | grep 1532
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 1532:005c Razer USA, Ltd DeathAdder Elite
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 1532:0209 Razer USA, Ltd BlackWidow Tournament Edition Chroma

If I open razercfg or qrazercfg, no devices are detected. Restarting the razerd.service does not help.

If I open razergenie, the devices are there and configurable. However, I have no way to save them or set them to configure on startup.

I don't have a xorg.conf, so that is not stopping it. I created a /etc/razer.conf from the example file I dug out of the .cache and no matter what I try, I cannot get this thing to discover the devices. I really expected this to just work when I installed it. I must be missing something, but I have worked on this for many hours to find myself at a brick wall. Does anyone have any ideas? Do you think I need to have the zen kernel installed to make this work?

I would like to post part of my log file, but I don't know if I can paste 140 lines without angering someone. I seem to remember being able to open a code box for such things, but that was a long time ago.

ewaller · 2022-07-12 22:46:05

140 lines is fine. Use [code ] insert log output here. [/code ] without the extra spaces between 'code' and ]
