I'm seeing the keyboard always show up as disconnected. The aur install went smooth. The das_keyboard_q-service service is showing as active (running)

I can't switch profiles, change colors, etc.. The current das-keyboard-q version is:

local/das-keyboard-q 3.3.3-1

I can also see the keyboard in the lsusb:

Bus 003 Device 008: ID 24f0:202b Metadot X50 RGB Mechanical Keyboard

Any ideas of what could be missing or going wrong here?

The url needs to be pointed to the new one https://download.daskeyboard.com/q-software-releases/3.3.3/Das-Keyboard-Q_3.3.3.deb and the new MD5 is 5214b5ef6dc4fe0faa4012154512cc9c. Everything seems to be fine with no further modification.

In order to get the Q software to see my keyboard i had to enable the service:

$systemctl status das_keyboard_q-service

○ das_keyboard_q-service.service - Das Keyboard Q-Service Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/das_keyboard_q-service.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: inactive (dead)

$systemctl start das_keyboard_q-service

This installed fine. Q asks me to connect my keyboard even though it is. It lights up and i can control my arch machine's volume and sleep with it (and I'm typing this :)

I connected it to a windows 10 machine and flashed the firmware and was able to connect Q to it and make it do things.

Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks

The tiny 16x16 tray icon can be replaced with another (256x256) asset within the electron asar.app archive:

 pkill -9 das-keyboard-q
 asar extract /usr/lib/das-keyboard-q/resources/app.asar ~/das-extract
 cp ~/das-extract/gray-q-icon.png ~/das-extract/16x16.png
 sudo asar pack ~/das-extract /usr/lib/das-keyboard-q/resources/app.asar
