Is it possible to access hardware RGB controls of connected USB devices? - eviltoast

So, I have a Steelseries M800 keyboard and a Corsair mouse. Unfortunately neither of them are supported by Open RGB, and so I’m stuck with my RGB making rainbows.

Well, sort of. My keyboard still has the configuration it had from when I still used Windows over 2 years ago. But my mouse does not.

I use an XP Pen tablet for making art, and the official driver from XP Pen doesn’t come with any options to adjust and calibrate the screen’s colours, but I managed to figure out how to access these hardware settings through command line. Now this has me wondering if it’s possible to do the same for my keyboard and mouse.

    If all else fails, you can always spin up a Windows VM. I generally keep one around for tasks like this (or complex Excel workbooks).
