Problem with razercfg

[sliddex]

Hi guys! I have problem with razercfg. I've runned these commands in console

sudo apt-get install python
sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
sudo apt-get install python-qt4
sudo apt-get install cmake

and I have this error "Could not find library "libusb-1.0" with header libusb.h". Im using HDD for home folder, and other part of OS is on my SSD. Is it possible this to be problem?

Hey mate,

6 months on... but if you (or anyone else) still need the program - this is probably the issue:

So make sure you:

rm CMakeCache.txt

Once that's done - this is how I set it up in 14.04 [on KUbuntu] (with help from README and googling errors as they came up):

First make sure you have all of your dependencies - I found I needed pyside to make qrazercfg run...

sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0-0-dev cmake python-qt4 python3-pyside

Now, from the directory you git-cloned or unzipped into...

cmake .
make

sudo su

make install
cp ./razerd.initscript /etc/init.d/razerd
ln -s /etc/init.d/razerd /etc/rc2.d/S99razerd
ln -s /etc/init.d/razerd /etc/rc5.d/S99razerd
ln -s /etc/init.d/razerd /etc/rc0.d/K01razerd
ln -s /etc/init.d/razerd /etc/rc6.d/K01razerd

Now, according to the README:

If you don't have an xorg.conf, you don't have to do anything and it
should work out-of-the-box.

If you do... then reference the README for what you need to do, the section is:

X11-WINDOW (X.ORG) CONFIGURATION
================================

Make sure you run the service... either as su if still carrying on from above or sudo if you opened a new shell:

service razerd start

Then you should just be able to run either:

razercfg

or

qrazercfg

If you chose qrazercfg - you should get a nice GUI like this:

And with that, we'll bid this until recently dormant and unanswered old thread good night. Thanks for sharing your fix and hopefully it will help future travellers.
