I picked up a Razer BlackWidow Ultimate that has additional keys meant for macros that are set using a tool that's installed on Windows. I'm assuming that these aren't some fancypants joojoo keys and should emit scancodes like any other keys.

Firstly, is there a standard way to check these scancodes in Linux? Secondly, how do I set these keys to do things in command line and X-based Linux setups? My current Linux install is Xubuntu 10.10, but I'll be switching to Kubuntu once I have a few things fixed up. Ideally the answer should be generic and system-wide.

Things I have tried so far:

Things I need to try

  • snoopy pro + reverse engineering (oh dear)

  • Wireshark - preliminary futzing around seems to indicate no scancodes emitted when what I seem to think is the keyboard is monitored and keys pressed. Might indicate additional keys are a separate device or need to be initialised somehow.

  • Need to cross reference that with lsusb output from Linux, in three scenarios: standalone, passed through to a Windows VM without the drivers installed, and the same with.

  • LSUSB only detects one device on a standalone Linux install

  • It might be useful to check if the mice use the same Razer Synapse driver , since that means some variation of razercfg might work (not detected, only seems to work for mice)

Things I have worked out:

  • In a Windows system with the driver, the keyboard is seen as a keyboard and a pointing device. The pointing device uses - in addition to your bog standard mouse drivers - a driver for something called a Razer Synapse.

  • Mouse driver seen in Linux under evdev and lsusb as well

  • Single device under OS X apparently, though I have yet to try lsusb equivalent on that

  • Keyboard goes into pulsing backlight mode in OS X upon initialisation with the driver. This should probably indicate that there's some initialisation sequence sent to the keyboard on activation.

  • They are, in fact, fancypants joojoo keys.

Extending this question a little:

I have access to a Windows system so if I need to use any tools on that to help answer the question, it's fine. I can also try it on systems with and without the config utility. The expected end result is still to make those keys usable on Linux however.

I also realise this is a very specific family of hardware. I would be willing to test anything that makes sense on a Linux system if I have detailed instructions - this should open up the question to people who have Linux skills, but no access to this keyboard.

The minimum end result I require:

I need these keys detected, and usable in any fashion on any of the current graphical mainstream Ubuntu variants, and naturally have to work with my keyboard. Virtual cookie and mad props if it's something nicely packaged and usable by the average user.

I will require compiled code that will work on my system, or a source that I can compile (with instructions if it's more complex than ./configure , make, make install) if additional software not on the Ubuntu repositories for the current LTS or standard desktop release at the time of the answer. I will also require sufficient information to replicate, and successfully use the keys on my own system.

  • Does this still work for you? (I'm talking about the latest firmware mentioned below by Sergey) Apr 9, 2013 at 23:58
  • I've not tested it, I'm afraid, i've been meaning to try sergey's solution to see if it works, but I've been running windows mostly the past few months for schoolwork. If it does, I'll post a comment to that effect

M1-M5 are in fact regular keys - they just need to be specifically enabled before pressing them will generate a scancode. tux_mark_5 developed a small Haskell program which sends the correct SET_REPORT message to Razer keyboards to enable these keys, and ex-parrot ported the same code to Python.

On Arch Linux systems the Python port has been packaged and is available from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60518.

On Debian or Ubuntu systems setting up the Python port of the code is relatively easy. You need to install PyUSB and libusb (as root):

    aptitude install python-usb

Then grab the blackwidow_enable.py file from http://finch.am/projects/blackwidow/ and execute it (also as root):

    chmod +x blackwidow_enable.py
    ./blackwidow_enable.py

This will enable the keys until the keyboard is unplugged or the machine is rebooted. To make this permanent call the script from whatever style of startup script you most prefer. For instructions on how to set this up in Debian have a look at the Debian documentation.

To use tux_mark_5's Haskell code you'll need to install Haskell and compile the code yourself. These instructions are for a Debian-like system (including Ubuntu).

  1. Install GHC, libusb-1.0-0-dev and cabal (as root):

    aptitude install ghc libusb-1.0-0-dev cabal-install git pkg-config
    
  2. Fetch the list of packages:

    cabal update
    
  3. Install USB bindings for Haskell (no need for root):

    cabal install usb
    
  4. Download the utility:

    git clone git://github.com/tuxmark5/EnableRazer.git
    
  5. Build the utility:

    cabal configure
    cabal build
    
  6. Run the utility (also as root):

    ./dist/build/EnableRazer/EnableRazer
    

After this you can copy EnableRazer binary anywhere you want and run it at startup.

Immediately after execution, X server should see M1 as XF86Tools, M2 as XF86Launch5, M3 as XF86Launch6, M4 as XF86Launch7 and M5 as XF86Launch8. Events for FN are emitted as well.

These keys can be bound within xbindkeys or KDE's system settings to arbitrary actions.

Since your keyboard might be different, you might need to change the product ID in Main.hs line 64:

withDevice 0x1532 0x<HERE GOES YOUR KEYBOARD's PRODUCT ID> $ \dev -> do

  • This works, good going. You'll get 500 rep in a day or two, when the system allows me to. I've taken the liberty of adding pkg-config, which was needed to install a prerequisite of the haskell usb package to the list of prerequisites. The software works with no modifications whatsoever on my standard blackwidow ultimate, with a product ID of 1532:010d according to lsusb. Keys are detected on evtest and appear to be usable, so this has perfectly met the requirements of the question.

  • with ID 10e it works with my standard blackwidow (non-ultimate). I recommend to add a udev rule, so it gets started automaticly, without problems, e.g. make a file 99-enable-razer-keyboard.rules int /etc/udev/rules.d with SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="1532", ATTR{idProduct}=="010e", RUN+="/root/EnableRazer" in it (here you may have to modify the path and id again)

    I have the Razer BlackWidow 2013 (not the ultimate one), when I execute the blackwidow_enable.py script (with and without root), I get the message "Blackwidow not found.". Could you please help me debug this? I'm on UbuntuGnome 13.04. It seems like the Product_ID is different and after changing the product ID, I now get this error: Could not select configuration endpoint. May 19, 2013 at 3:15

Razer seems to be forcing their cloud-based Synapse 2 configurator on all users nowadays, with accompanying firmware upgrade to version 2.*. Once you have upgraded the firmware, you cannot go back (keyboard is completely bricked if you try to flash it with older firmware).

The ‘magic bytes’ from the Haskell program in tux_mark_5's answer won't work with the latest firmware. Instead, the driver sends these bytes during the initialization sequence: ‘0200 0403’. These enable the macro keys, but the keyboard enters a peculiar mode in which instead of the standard HID protocol it sends 16-byte packets (presumably to increase the number of keys that can be pressed simultaneously). Linux HID system cannot quite cope with this, and while most keys work as expected, the macro keys stay unrecognized: the HID driver doesn't feed any data to the input layer when they are pressed.

To make your keyboard enter the legacy mode (in which the macro keys send XF86Launch* keycodes, and the FN key sends keycode 202), send these bytes: 0200 0402.

The full packet will be:

00000000 00020004 02000000 00000000
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
00000000 00000000 0400

Here's a very rough and dirty program I wrote in less esoteric Python 3 to perform the task. Note the code to generate the Razer control packets in blackwidow.bwcmd() and the Razer logo LED commands as a bonus :)

  • my keyboard got upgraded and I haven't tried it yet. I'll give it a shot when I have a proper linux system again. Unfortunately I can't give another bounty for this - in part due to how the bounty system works. I will probably switch over the correct answer to yours if it does tho.

    Sergey thank you very much, it works even with the newer Razer BlackWidow 2013 with PRODUCT_ID = 0x011b. I've not tried to set any macro yet but I see the events coming from /dev/input/by-id/usb-Razer_Razer_BlackWidow_2013-event-kbd and also in xev :). Jan 8, 2014 at 23:43
  • Thank you, this is great. I'm using it for some years now without any troubles (finally got the reputation to comment :)). One comment on pyusb: Since Ubuntu still does not ship pyusb for python 3, I had to install it manually from source using sudo python3 setup.py install

Perhaps this might shed some light on the issue (from the showkey manpage):

In 2.6 kernels raw mode, or scancode mode, is not very raw at all. Scan codes are first translated to key codes, and when scancodes are desired, the key codes are translated back. Various transformations are involved, and there is no guarantee at all that the final result corresponds to what the keyboard hardware did send. So, if you want to know the scan codes sent by various keys it is better to boot a 2.4 kernel. Since 2.6.9 there also is the boot option atkbd.softraw=0 that tells the 2.6 kernel to return the actual scan codes.

The raw scan codes are available only on AT and PS/2 keyboards, and even then they are disabled unless the atkbd.softraw=0 kernel parameter is used. When the raw scan codes are not available, the kernel uses a fixed built-in table to produce scan codes from keycodes. Thus, setkeycodes(8) can affect the output of showkey in scan code dump mode.

I'm about to see if showkey will dump anything with the macro keys after this boot option is set.

EDIT: After the reboot, no success, but I was looking into capturing raw input from the USB devices themselves. I noted the following, interestingly (I have a Razer Diamondback as well as BlackWidow):

[root@kestrel by-id]# pwd
/dev/input/by-id
[root@kestrel by-id]# ls
usb-Razer_Razer_BlackWidow_Ultimate-event-kbd    usb-Razer_Razer_Diamondback_Optical_Mouse-event-mouse
usb-Razer_Razer_BlackWidow_Ultimate-event-mouse  usb-Razer_Razer_Diamondback_Optical_Mouse-mouse
usb-Razer_Razer_BlackWidow_Ultimate-mouse
[root@kestrel by-id]#

However, using dd to capture raw input works on both diamondback mice, on the event-kbd device, but not on the BlackWidow mouse devices.

I'm guessing perhaps they do not generate any output until somehow activated by the drivers that are installed. I don't know much about Linux USB however, so I don't even know if this makes sense. Perhaps they need to be bound first?

Well, all three black widow devices are noted in /proc/bus/input/devices, however they don't appear to be enumerated in lsusb or /proc/bus/usb/devices. I'm not sure how to access these devices to attempt to bind them or interface with them in any way.

event4 seems to correspond to the actual keyboard, event6 with the macro keys, but I still can't capture any input from them. Hope that all helped.

  • I'm guessing that the system has to communicate with the keyboard to initialise them - with OS X, my keyboard is thrown into the 'pulsing' light mode. There's probably some initialisation required before the keyboard macro keys work

  • What I'm wondering is how to send that information to the mouse and event-mouse devices. event-mouse seems to be responsible, since its bound to a keyboard event handler. I mean, theoretically, all one would have to to is initialize the device and setup the proper scancode->keycode map with setkeycode and ittl pickup the events as normal keystrokes.

My solution is for Razer BlackWidow 2013 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard (Model Number: RZ03-0039) and was tested on openSUSE 12.3.

I used Google Translate on this link.

Basically it uses the modified version of @Sergey's answer for this question, but with simple modifications:

  1. My PRODUCT_ID = 0x011b

  2. On my openSUSE 12.3, python-usb is not available for Python 3, so I converted this script to work with Python 2 by removing the bwcmd method and defined the USB_BUFFER = ... as in the link from @tux_mark_5's answer.


For convenience here is the content of my /usr/local/sbin/init_blackwidow.py:

  • Where did you find a copy of pyusb that has usb.util?

  • @KayEss, I am using python-usb-1.0.0-21.1.noarch.rpm. IIRC it is part of the the stadard repositories of 0penSUSE 12.3. According to rpm -qi, the source is at sourceforge.net/projects/pyusb and the package source is at obs://build.opensuse.org/devel:languages:python

  • I'm on Ubuntu, and there's no packaged version for python3 on that. I was then having a bit of trouble getting all of sudo, python3, pip and virtualenv in a line, but it's sorted now and I'm seeing codes for the macro keys.

    @KayEss, for Ubuntu 14.04, I used the instructions from: github.com/walac/pyusb. In particular: sudo apt-get install python libusb-1.0-0sudo and pip install pyusb --pre

  • its a start, and worth an upvote. Interestingly the macro keys do not show up in showkeys at all

  • maybe this macro key only emits scancode in combination with another key. Like a scancode for macro-1, etc ?

    They seem to work independantly once configured in windows. I may need to consider a lower level approach. My guess is since there's support for mice made by the same company with razercfg its using non standard scancodes. heh. If it was easy, i suppose i would have found it ;)

  • That document has not been updated since 2002. Is it still current? Apr 19, 2018 at 5:52

See Razer Key Mapper for Linux.

This works with all Razer device's macros, given some code modification. If you still don't have a solution and your device isn't listed I'd be happy to help you configure your device and add it to my supported list.

    Simpler I guess. Pre-made. All there is left to do is filling the config files. Apr 4, 2018 at 17:07
