razer-bw-te-ctl

This program makes it possible to change the configuration of your Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition keybooard from within Linux, *BSD or any other POSIX-compatible system supported by libusb.

Make sure to let the Windows Razer Synapse tool upgrade the firmware to the newest version before running the program. There might be some issues otherwise due to protocol changes, although I dont really deem it very probable.

Run razer-bw-te-ctl --help or man razer-bw-te-ctl for usage information.

Packages

Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get a package with the latest development version from Archlinuxs AUR, or from openSUSE Build Service for the rest of mainstream distributions. Consult the list of repositories and their respective links at:

Installation

Build dependencies: cmake >= 2.8.5, help2man
Runtime dependencies: libusb >= 1.0

$ git clone git://github.com/pjanouch/razer-bw-te-ctl.git
$ mkdir razer-bw-te-ctl/build
$ cd razer-bw-te-ctl/build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
# make install

Note that theres no make uninstall.

For Debian-based distros, you can do the following instead of the last step:

$ cpack -G DEB
# dpkg -i razer-bw-te-ctl-*.deb

Note that for versions of CMake before 2.8.9, you need to prefix cpack with fakeroot or file ownership will end up wrong.
