@gonzo2028: There are 2 alternative ways: 1. @aaronfischer splits the package into 25 different ones and whenever there is an update he will have to update 25 individual packages; good for the useres, not so good for the maintainer. 2. @aaronfischer "merges" all the files from the split packages into a single package. This will result in installing binaries, udev rules and .desktop files for 25 devices for every user. Less work for the maintainer, not practical for the users. As is it, the maintainer maintains one single "split-package" and users that use an AUR helper such as yaourt, can uninstall the packages they don't need. This way users get to keep only the files they need to support their own device and the maintainer does not have to modify and commit 25 packages every time there is an update. Hope this helps clear it.

@edward_81: Please read the previous comments here. I've talked to Stefan about this. Every version of roccat-tools need a specific version of libgaminggear to work correctly. There are two options here: Consistent/reliable package and a little bit of hasle on upgrades -- or easy upgrade process and the chance of a broken package with weird bugs everywhere. I've choosen the first option.

Is possible to change the dependency line for libgaminggear from: libgaminggear=0.11.1 to: libgaminggear>=0.11.1 Because every time i try to upgrade the system with yaourt/aur, it complain that roccat-tool-common need that exactly version of libgaminggear.

you should add ryos to the PKGBUILD

Thanks Von for your help. I've updated the package.

Current version of roccat-tools is 1.3.0, here's the PKGBUILD: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2533345/roccat-tools-PKGBUILD

The issue was I plugged it into a USB3 port, probably because I didn't do anything to get those to work (since nothing else seems to work with those either). It seems to work fine in a USB2 port.

Got my new Ryos Mk Pro today. I believe the PKGBUILD needs updated to include Ryos. After including it myself, I still can't seem to get my keyboard to work, however. Perhaps it's the kernels, but I'm not savvy enough to understand what's wrong.

Got my Kone XTD today and installed kmod-roccat, roccat-tools-common and roccat-tools-konextd. When starting konextdconfig I get following error: "konextdconfig: error while loading shared libraries: libkonepluswidget.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" Why is it asking for Kone+ libs? Same goes for Isku FX (that I get tomorrow). It's asking for Isku (without FX) libs. Did I do something wrong?

1.0.0 version bump!

@Vash63 I have just updated to the latest mtdev, rebooted and noticed no problem. Which mouse model do you have? Do you have kmod-roccat installed? Do you use gpm to add mouse support in the terminal?
