Un-conflict with OpenRGB?
While I have apex-tux enabled I can't control the RGB lighting on my keyboard via OpenRGB. Would there be some way to controll the OLED without blocking other software from interacting with it? Thanks. (Also, on an unrelated note, is there any way to get the macro key working on linux? The only built in keyboard macros can only be assigned to a singular button which is kinda dumb)
HIDAPI probably opens an exclusive handle to the device. I'll have to do some digging but I wanted to work on the USB implementation anyway...
Does it work the other way around? As in start OpenRGB and then apex-tux?
As for the macros: No idea, I have a Windows VM where I can pass through the keyboard directly so I can use the official software to program the macros. It's kinda hacky but works for my purposes as I don't reprogram them all that much.
Doing it the other way doesn't work. Actually, it seems once tux launches openRGB can no longer see the device, and if I force close tux it still doesn't, at least rn.
Yea I figured I would have to set up a vm lol, do you just use a standard microsoft ISO or can you recommended a custom one
@GanerCodes any news on this?
I don't think there was an update on this, I also did my rgb setup with a windows 10 vm (a basic one with usb passthrough) with steelseries gg
For this issue. Simply closing apex-tux and then rescanning for devices in openrgb will allow openrgb to see devices again. You can then set rgb properties and relaunch apex-tux. I'm curious if communicating with the author of openrgb will allow integrated functionality via a unified interface.

Any script?
