Razer Products

Post by Kackstift »

Hey, do Razer products work with gimx? (Ubuntu 14.10) I already have a noname mouse where no drivers are reqired... so gimx reconizes thumbbuttons like M4, M5...

Sorry for that dumb question, but i don't want to waste 90€... (Razer Orbweaver)

Hi,

Nowodays most (if not all) input devices for PCs are plug and play, which means they work with generic drivers.
So yes, it should work fine as a standard keyboard in Ubuntu 14.04.
You won't have access to the features that require the proprietary windows software (but GIMX can be used to replace those features).

Hey Matlo, I heard a lot of people talking about roccat working on linux. So does hardware now need plug and play or not?

I don't really understand the question.
