    This update supports all of my new computer’s components. Thank everyone involved so much for this.

    Just a quick question, I was right to assign 24 LEDs for the Corsair SP120 fans, right? Did a cursory search since it wasn’t on the table on the OpenRGB site.

      SP120 looks to have just hub mounted LEDs. It doesn’t say on Corsair’s site but from the pictures I would guess 4 LEDs per fan. I have ML140 RGB fans in one of my builds and they also have hub mounted LEDs, 4 per fan. You can experiment with changing one LED at a time to see when you no longer see any effect from changing them and figure out the number of LEDs that way as well.

      Hmm, I did some fixups for the Core V1 this time around. I tested on Windows but not on Linux though. There were some other Razer Controller changes but they were mostly keyboard related (moving keyboard layouts to the new Keyboard Layout Manager framework). The rest were small cleanups that I didn’t think should impact functionality.

      Does the Razer Core show a version or serial number in the Information tab?

          Hmm, ok, it looks like it is at least using the correct interface. You do have a GPU installed, right? I think I remember the Core not lighting up at least the internal zone if there’s no GPU (or maybe an incompatible one?).

            Watched the Core’s back LEDs in a darkened room and that part does respond to OpenRGB.

            Just as you said, the LED strip below graphics card doesn’t respond due to the antiquity of my GPU.

    Hello! I am trying to have the OpenRGB goes light off on a keyboard from a MSI laptop with Linux Mint 21.2. I can’t find a way to have to light goes off during lock screen, screensaver or don’t touch the keyboard or the mouse for a certain ammount of time. There is a way to have that work like that?

      This is not a feature in OpenRGB, though it could be added as a plugin or external script. If you can detect this event in a script, you can call openrgb --color black from the script to turn off the lights.

        Thank you openrgb --color black Doesn’t work. It load the program, not change the LED color. It possible to do with $ openrgb -p Red after I saved a profile with the color to load. Or “Off” if i want to turn off the keyboard. OpenRGB see the keyboard even if return an error with i2c that are actually loaded.

        I can also read the keyboard feedback with evemu-record but I lack the capability to do a scrip with this command. Anyone know how to use it?

          The i2c message can be ignored if all your devices use USB. I2C is pretty much only used by RGB RAM, GPUs, and some older motherboards. Mystic Light motherboards use USB.
