If you have trouble running this software, please open an issue on Github:
Requirement
Any Linux distribution that use udev (Debian, Ubuntu, ArchLinux, Fedora,…) or Windows
Installation
Prerequisites
Linux:
Installation require a compilation toolchain and python headers to compile hidapi. On Debian / Ubuntu, this can be installed with the following command (as root):
apt-get install build-essential python-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev
Windows:
On Windows, you have to install first:
Python 3.6 or 2.7: https://www.python.org/
Visual C++ 2015 Build Tools: http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools
Installing From PYPI
Run the following command (as root):
pip install rivalcfg
Installing From sources
Clone the repositiory:
git clone https://github.com/flozz/rivalcfg.git cd rivalcfg
Install rivalcfg (as root):
pip install .
NOTE: udev rules should be automatically installed, but if setup fails, you should copy the rules manually: cp rivalcfg/data/99-steelseries-rival.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ and then run the udevadm trigger command.
Archlinux AUR package
Use package rivalcfg-git

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
How can I dim the brightness of the lights
Lights are configured via RGB color, so to have a lower brightness, just set a darker color (e.g. #880000 instead of #FF0000 for a darker red).
How can I turn the lights off?
You can turn the lights off by setting the black color to the lights.
Example with Rival 100:
rivalcfg --color=black
Example with Rival, Rival 300:
rivalcfg --logo-color=black --wheel-color=black
I have a “Permission denied” error, what can I do?
If you have an error like
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/dev/hidrawXX'
this means that the udev rules have not been installed with the software. This can be fixed using the following commands (as root):
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flozz/rivalcfg/master/rivalcfg/data/99-steelseries-rival.rules -O /etc/udev/rules.d/99-steelseries-rival.rules sudo udevadm trigger
Debug
Rivalcfg uses several environment variable to enable different debug features:
RIVALCFG_DEBUG=1: Enable debug. Setting this variable will allow rivalcfg to write debug information to stdout.
RIVALCFG_DRY=1 Enable dry run. Setting this variable will avoid rivalcfg to write anything to a real device plugged to the computer (i any). It will instead simulate the device, so it can be used to make test on mice that are not plugged to the computer if used in conjunction to the RIVALCFG_PROFILE variable.
RIVALCFG_PROFILE=<VendorID>:<ProductID>: Forces rivalcfg to load the corresponding profile instead of the one of the plugged device (if any).
RIVALCFG_DEVICE=<VendorID>:<ProductID>: Forces rivalcfg to write bytes to this device, even if it is not matching the selected profile.
Example: debug logging only:
$ RIVALCFG_DEBUG=1 rivalcfg --list
Example: dry run on Rival 300 profile:
$ RIVALCFG_DRY=1 RIVALCFG_PROFILE=1038:1710 rivalcfg -c ff1800
Example: using Rival 300 command set on Rival 300 CS:GO Fade Editon mouse:
$ RIVALCFG_PROFILE=1038:1710 RIVALCFG_DEVICE=1038:1394 rivalcfg -c ff1800 # ↑ selects "Rival 300" profile ↑ but write on the "Rival 300 CS:GO Fade Edition" device
Example debug output:
[DEBUG] Rivalcfg 2.5.3 [DEBUG] Python version: 2.7.13 [DEBUG] OS: Linux [DEBUG] Linux distribution: Ubuntu 17.04 zesty [DEBUG] Dry run enabled [DEBUG] Forced profile: 1038:1710 [DEBUG] Targeted device: 1038:1710 [DEBUG] Selected mouse: <Mouse SteelSeries Rival 300 (1038:1710:00)> [DEBUG] Mouse._device_write: 00 08 01 FF 18 00 [DEBUG] Mouse._device_write: 00 09 00
