Unable to connect to razer_bcd on fresh install of Ubuntu 15.10 on Razer Blade Stealth #106

Closed agrapsas closed 8 years ago

agrapsas commented 8 years ago

Followed steps for creating and installing an Ubuntu .deb file. Rebooted.

Running /usr/share/razer_chroma_controller/chroma_controller.py results in:

Loading preferences from "/home/andrew/.config/razer_chroma/preferences.json'...
Successfully loaded preferences.
Failed to connect to the dbus service. Is the razer_bcd service running?

Checking the status with sudo service razer_bcd status has an outcome of

razer_bcd.service - LSB: start/stops razer_bcd

If I run sudo service razer_bcd start there is no output.

Executing sudo apt-get install -f results in

There's barely anything installed on this, as I just got the laptop a few hours ago. Let me know if there's a log file I can get at and I'll grab its contents.

A service --status-all shows [ + ] razer_bcd

terricain commented 8 years ago

service --status-all can be useless at times, this one included. The daemon hasn't been modified for the stealth yet. Can you confirm that it's bound to the driver On 2 Apr 2016 04:59, "Andrew Grapsas" notifications@github.com wrote:

What's the best way to do that?

Oh. I ran sudo ./set_wave.sh left and, yeah, that worked :)

terricain commented 8 years ago

That would mean its bound :wink:, there is some details on the wiki about the driver and binding to it. The issue about the stealth not connecting is also on another thread so closing this one as there is no point in having 2 open. Glad the driver is working though ;)
