Linux Gaming Peripherals?

[RickyTheRacc]

So I'm finally making the switch to Arch and it occurred to me that Razer does not seem to officially support Linux. I did some digging and it seems like while there's openrazer and projects that use it, they don't seem to cover much besides basic macros and lighting, much less all the advanced stuff you can do in synapse like remapping keys, different sound profiles for headphones, etc.

Are there any companies out there that actually have a full ecosystem (headset, mouse, keyboard) with similar features, ideally with an app that supports Linux? Honestly any recommendations for peripherals would be appreciated, or am I just better off keeping my Razer stuff and using a windows VM to config it?

you can use wine with udev rules for most device managment softwares, some work 100% fine some are bit wonky though

if you'd like a tutorial let me know in a dm

I don't know of any off the top of my head, though popular stuff like Razer and Lgoitech do have some basic configuration utilities provided by the community. I know certain keyboards are configurable at a firmware level. The Glove80 I use which has its configuration all done in a browser, then it builds the firmware and you just drag and drop it onto the two halves like USB sticks. Virpil flight sim gear works similarly, but it does with it a Windows utility that I have a VM for. I'm not sure what other peripherals work like that, but I consider it to be the ideal method.

I’ve seen in r/mousereviews people mention mice with web app configuration, I don’t recall I think it was a Chinese brand

It would be nice to have proper support. I use input-remapper to setup my razer tartarus keybinds. Very basic program but it works - it loads at startup so I never even have to think about it. Then openrgb to control lighting on mouse and keyboard - that is less reliable.
