Having trouble installing Arch Linux Hardware drivers
I have razer products, the OpenRazer driver has been giving me hell to work for hours, I have searched far and wide and I have not reached a solid conclusion.
I even entered SU for the as well. I am a fairly new linux user and this is one of my few necessities to stay.

the hardware itself works, as a side note, but I can't program my macros for my brand new mouse.
Additional information regarding my plan:
Start putting all my programs/functions on linux.
Shrink my windows 11 installation to expand linux.
gradually phase out my windows installation
Did you start the daemon with systemctl if needed?
Ok, I know I am a little late now, but I am very new to linux and I just wanted to get my immutable distro (blendos) totally set up and gradually so that I can vibe and do my software development beyond the w11 environment.
I am using the KDE frontend desktop environment as it has a familiar layout.
How would I start the systemctl daemon? I need a snippet because its built for archlinux and their archlinux code cant run system-wide if its containerized.
I need to be able to run the software in system level for cross-compatibility in my macros.
use
systemctl from your host shell as normal
systemctl enable <service> to run <service> at boot
systemctl start <service> to start it
systemctl stop <service> to stop itAight, im gonna do that once I save my java environment on windows
aight, I am lost again. I know arch linux isn't the most beginner friendly...
<service> for enabling a driver that won't install on the system.

alright here I am, I checked the github issue tracker, and it looks like I am having a similar error to this, resulting in issues deriving from
I dont want to accidentally break something, so if you could briefly explain how I could make simple the installation process, perhaps by writing a script file to do it for me, I would greatly appreciate it.
ultimately the end goal is to have the OpenRazer driver installed on system level and be able to have my derivative software to configure such outside the immutable containers.
Kinda like a "super-macro" to universally apply to all my containers ahead of time.
I would even go out of my way to make sure the driver is easier to install on the system by publishing a script executable for the use IN blend-os.
@Histy, you've gained the level
1in the meantime, I am just going to use my main keeb to get some minor productivity done.
sudo systemctl enable openrazer
Try that and reboot
Or sudo systemctl enable openrazer-daemonmmmkay
If you can, can you test the installation of the driver? I'm not at home and can't remote in to Linux until I restart my laptop
It's an open source alternative support for the hardware
