In this video, I cover how use gaming mice and keyboards from Logitech, Etekcity, GSkill, Roccat, and Steelseries on Linux using a GUI application called Piper.

A full list of supported models can be found below.

Step 1. Installing Piper.
Piper has a couple of dependencies that need to be installed for it to function correctly.
https://github.com/libratbag/libratba...
The main one is libratbag, which can be installed using your Linux distribution’s package manager.
In fact, the project page covers the installation method for Fedora, Arch, Ubuntu, and Debian based distributions.

Once dependencies are satisfied, Piper can either be installed using your Linux distribution's package manager, or alternatively as a Flatpak.
Once again, the project page covers the installation method for Fedora, Arch, Debian, and Ubuntu based distributions.
In either case, once Piper is installed, launch the application as normal.
Step 2. Using Piper.
The interface of Piper is simple, but it does cover all the requirements.
For example, if you have a gaming mouse.
At the top there are tabs; Resolutions, Buttons, and LEDs, as well as an Apply button to confirm any changes.
The Resolution tab allows you to adjust the Sensitivity of the mouse, more specifically the Report Rate, and Resolutions in DPI.
Whereas, the Button tab allows you to change the action of selected buttons, or even remap them to something different entirely.
Finally, the LED tab allows you to change the action of the LED, specify the displayed colour, how frequently the LED changes / flashes, or even turn off entirely.
One final thing to note is that you can specify different mouse profiles, and switch to them by clicking the profile number at the top left.
