Sabre RGB not detected by ckb

[DivineComedy11]

Before I go into the issue, I'd like to thank ccMSC for their tireless efforts with this driver!

I have a red K70 (which is detected fine), and have recently purchased an RGB Sabre, which ckb unfortunately cannot see.

I have a feeling this is because I have a slightly newer model than the one previously supported, or at least one with a different bus ID as I get the following output when I run lsusb -d 1b1c:

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 1b1c:1b2f Corsair  

(Alongside the 1b09 ID for the K70)

Stopping the daemon and running it again just picks up the k70, as you might expect. I've tried digging around, but I get the impression it's slightly more involved than adding a string somewhere, so any input would be much appreciated.

I have the same issue as well. Just bought Sabre and it does not detect it.

[ccMSC]

Actually fairly simple :) Added here: https://github.com/ccMSC/ckb/tree/sabre

Let me know if it's working properly or if there's something else I need to do.

Hi ccMSC, I gave it a try and the mouse is detected by the application, but for some reason is now unable to move! When I ran the ckb-daemon I got this (Interrupt is mine):

I noticed that the application polls the mouse and prints c:38 until it gives up and drops the Sabre as a menu option. Keyboard also works fine throughout process.

Thanks for your help.

@ccMSC Any update to this? I've had same issues as @DivineComedy11 mouse does not move but it does detect it..

Thanks!
-Mike

[ccMSC]

Sorry, I've been away from the project for the past week so I didn't have a chance to look into it.

I thought it might have been caused by the firmware, so I've merged the fw2kb branch. Might solve the problem. If not, could you provide me the full USB information for the device, via

lsusb -vd 1b1c:1b2f

[DivineComedy11]

Gave it a try, no luck unfortunately.

Thank you for your help.

I just had the same problem on the sabre branch. It seems that the issue was in src/ckb-daemon/usb.h on line 66. For the IS_MOUSE check, it did not check to see if the mouse was a new sabre mouse. I forked the repository and fixed it: https://github.com/orangeturtle739/ckb/tree/sabre, and now it works.

[PLUT094]

@orangeturtle739 It works!!! Thank you

[orangeturtle739]

I opened a pull request for the fix: #367.

[DivineComedy11]

Good spot, nice one!

[PLUT094]

One issue I notice, not sure if anyone else has similar problems. When I turn on my computer in the morning the mouse doesn't move/detect it and I would have to either replug it back in OR run quickinstall again to get it to work.

Any ideas? @orangeturtle739

[orangeturtle739]

Not quite sure. I just tried restarting my computer, and the mouse worked fine. I am running Kubuntu 16.04.

[PLUT094]

maybe a mac issue..

[orangeturtle739]

I can't get it to work on my mac at all. What version of OS X are you running? I have 10.11.5.

[tatokis]

There's another bug report, can't remember which one, but there was a
fix about inconsistent Mac behaviour. Maybe the fork doesn't have that
fix included?

[orangeturtle739]

I just forked it yesterday, and put the fix on the sabre branch, which had the fw2kb branch already merged into it. So unless this mac fix was on the testing branch, I should have gotten it.

[tatokis]

#233 (comment) Maybe the fix wasn't pushed to source yet

[PLUT094]

@orangeturtle739 I'm running 10.11.4

[orangeturtle739]

It looks like it was fixed (#233 (comment), with this package: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16424004/ckb/ckb%20v0.2.5%2Bf05%2Blogging.pkg) but the source was not pushed, so we can't combine it with this fix.

[ccMSC]

Hey everyone, sorry for my absence but I finally got a chance to look at this again. I'm moving all new devices into the newdev branch, which now has the latest source changes as well as the IS_MOUSE fix. Let me know if it's working for you.

[orangeturtle739]

Thanks! I will try it out on my mac soon.

[DrDeath13]

Changing the hwid worked with my Sabre. Probably another new version. Mine has
Bus 008 Device 002: ID 1b1c:1b32 Corsair
I replaced the 1b14 @ usb.h and it got recognized by ckb like a charm. Don't know how to get it upstream so if @ccMSC or someone else can it'll be great for future updates. At first I tried to add the model as SABRE_ON (as Optical New) but I got some errors building it so, replacing hwid seemed easier than debugging.
And since I'm here, one request : is it possible to change the percentage of lightning seperately on each device? If I change it on Sabre it changes the keyboards (Strafe) as well and vice versa.
Thanks for your great work

[entisocial]

Hi, I'm new to all of this (since I got the mouse yesterday). I've got a sabre RGB with ID 1b1c:1b2f and I'm running macOS 10.12. I've tried the default beta 0.2.6 > my mouse isn't recognized. I've tried the fork from https://github.com/orangeturtle739/ckb/tree/sabre > still not recognized. I've tried the newdev branch and even though my IDs are present in the usb.h my mouse is still not recognized. Am I missing something? Am I supposed to do something else than just compile from the newdev branch?
Edit: nevermind me, I was able to save the profile on the mouse on windows, doesn't need CKB anymore.

[ollieatkinson]

@orangeturtle739, any luck with Mac?

I have this mouse:

$ system_profiler SPUSBDataType
...
        Corsair Gaming Sabre RGB Mouse:

          Product ID: 0x1b2f
          Vendor ID: 0x1b1c  (CORSAIR MEMORY INC.)
          Version: 2.03
          Serial Number: 0D00B015AEBD1840562C571FF5001946
          Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec
          Manufacturer: Corsair
          Location ID: 0x14700000 / 8
          Current Available (mA): 500
          Current Required (mA): 300
          Extra Operating Current (mA): 0
...

And I can see it defined in the usb.h file

#define P_SABRE_N       0x1b2f  /* new? */
#define P_SABRE_N_STR   "1b2f"
#define IS_SABRE(kb)    ((kb)->vendor == V_CORSAIR && ((kb)->product == P_SABRE_O || (kb)->product == P_SABRE_L || (kb)->product == P_SABRE_N))

But I keep getting No devices connected - any recommendations?

[orangeturtle739]

I never got it to work on a mac, and now I don't have a mac anymore to test on.

Perhaps try ckb-next? This repository seems to be no longer maintained, and they might have fixed it there.

[ollieatkinson]

@orangeturtle739 That worked - thanks for the tip.

[ekcg]

Hi, I recently bought a Sabre (CH-9303011-NA).
I first installed the binary file, ckb beta-v0.2.6
it says no devices connected.

Then, I tried https://github.com/mattanger/ckb-next#upgrading-source
it says "No devices connected. Warning: Driver version mismatch."

How do I find a matching driver? I believe its beta-v0.2.8, and how do I install that driver??

[ollieatkinson]

Ensure you are using https://github.com/mattanger/ckb-next and the daemon is running @ekcg

[ekcg]

How do I ensure daemon is running?? @ollieatkinson

[ekcg]

It worked! I'm guessing the older versions wasn't completely uninstalled, so the error keeps popping up. I uninstalled Xcode, qt, and deleted all the folders of the old ckb's. installed the binary for 0.2.8 and worked like a charm!
