Přemysl Janouch d034b7bb2a Enhance reliability
After a reboot to Windows, which had applied a different configuration, I wasn't
successful in reapplying the old settings from within Linux in a reliable way so
that they would be loaded by the device on the next reconnect.  Writing the
configuration twice in a row seemed to help.  This also seems to work.  There
might be some timing or what not behind the issue, I don't know.

The GUI tool is a bit prone to quitting on LIBUSB_ERROR_PIPE on my system at
the moment.  Not very user-friendly.  But I'm tired of inspecting it already,
unplugging and re-plugging in the mouse all the time like an idiot...

sensei-raw-ctl
This program makes it possible to change the configuration of your SteelSeries
Sensei Raw mouse from within Linux, *BSD or any other POSIX-compatible system
supported by libusb.
Run `sensei-raw-ctl --help' or `man sensei-raw-ctl' for usage information.
If you don't fancy command line tools, there's also a basic GTK+ frontend
available. On Ubuntu and its derivates, you should be able to find it in your
System Settings.
Supported devices
=================
- SteelSeries Sensei Raw
- SteelSeries Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Installation
============
Build dependencies: cmake >= 2.8.5, help2man, libusb >= 1.0,
gtk+ >= 3.0 (optional)
$ git clone git://github.com/pjanouch/sensei-raw-ctl.git
$ cd sensei-raw-ctl
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
# make install
Note that there's no "make uninstall" and the GUI needs to be installed in the
right location in order to work correctly.
If you don't want the GUI frontend, append -DBUILD_GUI=NO to the cmake command.
The GUI also isn't going to be built if you don't have the GTK+ 3 development
packages installed, if your distribution has any.
For Debian-based distros, you can do the following instead of the last step:
$ fakeroot cpack -G DEB
# dpkg -i sensei-raw-ctl-*.deb
Leave out the fakeroot for CMake >= 2.8.9, it's been fixed since.
