Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: juli1.hartm...@gmail.com * Package name : keyleds Version : 0.2 Upstream Author : Julien Hartmann <juli1.hartm...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/spectras/keyleds/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: C, C++ Description : Logitech Gaming keyboard per-key lighting support
This is a set of user-space tools to communicate with Logitech gaming keyboards through hiddev, in order to: - Query extended information (firmware version, layout, supported report rates and lighting features). - Manipulate per-key lighting feature. Read/write key colors. - Manipulate game-mode-inhibited keys. - Change keyboard reporting rate. Tools include: - a library implementing Logitech's protocol. - a command-line tool. - a session service to set and animate lights depending on X events, such as changing active window. - experimental python bindings for the library (I may skip those though). No other similar package exists AFAIK. I am the program's only author for now. In case it matters, I used USB sniffing of the traffic generated by the software provided by Logitech for Windows to understand the protocol, and had no access to any documentation. As a user of both Debian and Ubuntu, I figured it would be great to package it for Debian. I am novice as .deb packaging though so the package will need thorough checking from an experienced maintainer. Package name is tentative, I feel it should be more specific though. Suggestions welcome. Perhaps logitech-keyleds?
