$ sudo msiklm test No compatible keyboard found!

Thank you for your working first. Is it possible to support GS65 in the furture?

The keyboard is not detected because it is expected that the vendor IR and product ID are different, see line 312 in msiklm.c: dev = hid_open(0x1770, 0xff00, 0); You could generally replace this line with your IDs, i.e. dev = hid_open(4152, 4386, 0); and try if this works or not. Doing so and rerun 'sudo msiklm test' will probably succeed in opening your keyboard, but I cannot tell if changing color or modes will work. You could give it a try, but of course on your own risk ;-) If it works I could extend the program to detect your keyboard as well (i.e. the program checks different IDs). Maybe also take a look at this issue, I think it's pretty similar to yours.

i've tested the fix and it gets the keyboard recognised, but unfortunately none of the functionality works (either specifying single colour or 7, words or hex, quoted or not)

I'm not very familiar with USB packets but here is a capture from USBPCap on Windows on a GS65 in steelseries engine 3 switching to the AQUA configuration. capture.zip

This tool won't work with the GS65 because it has a per-key RGB keyboard which uses a completely different protocol. I wrote my own tool for it (and similar models) here : https://github.com/Askannz/msi-perkeyrgb
