Libratbag is a daemon to configure on-board settings on gaming mice. It has drivers to support many different mice vendors and models. Clients, like the GUI application Piper, interact with the daemon via DBUS. The on-board settings include button-mappings, resolutions, and LED colors and patterns.
The vendors all use different protocols to configure the mice, and every mouse model must have a separate .SVG and configuration file. This talk will cover the steps to add support for a mouse. From reverse engineering the protocol, writing the driver for libratbag, and creating a .SVG to be displayed in Piper.
If you own an unsupported device then you can bring it to the conference, and we can look at adding support for it after the talk.
