@xiota Happy to report, that this works as expected for me. Thank you for the work!

@RayJW Here is a PKGBUILD to test. Notably, the systemd service appears to have been removed. Please let me know if it is working as expected.

Thanks for the quick response, and obviously no worries! I was merely wondering whether this was abandoned, but good to hear you're still active @Technetium1 :)

RayJW still working on it and actively care about this. Sorry for the delay.

They recently released another new version 4.2.1 with a bunch of Linux specific changes. Do you reckon this could be updated now? The firmware on my board was updated automatically on Windows, and now I haven't been able to use the software for months. I tried doing the packaging myself, but I'm not familiar enough with PKGBUILD yet to get it working.

Currently there are issues with the v4 release. Updates coming eventually. Firmware upgrades will be required for most devices, as the Q-button's behavior has been modified. More details are available in the firmware changelog.

Please see this thread on the forum about properly packaging the new release.

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
