The SteelSeries GG software is not available for Linux operating systems. However, you can still use your SteelSeries device on a Linux computer as a plug-and-play peripheral without the need for additional software.
Can I use this keyboard on Linux?
Yeah, just plug this keyboard in and you're good to go. Just a heads up, you're slightly limited to the profiles you can switch to with the scroll wheel. The OLED features might need a little tinkering to get working smoothly.
Can I customize the RGB, Key Actuation, and Macros without the use of the GG software?
A Windows-compatible computer will be required to customize your keyboard prior to connecting it to a Linux-compatible device.
The keyboard features a menu on the onboard OLED screen where users can configure settings. However, it is important to note that the RGB settings available through this menu are more restricted compared to those accessible through the software.
If I connect my keyboard to a different computer, will it retain the saved profiles so that I can then use them on my Linux computer?
Yes! There are five available profiles that can be accessed through the scroll wheel menu on the keyboard. This feature allows users access to GG to save profiles directly to the device.
Can I update my keyboard within Linux?
You’ll want to use SteelSeries GG to update your device firmware properly. It’s easiest to connect your keyboard to a Windows PC to make sure the firmware update goes smoothly with SteelSeries GG.
GLHF!
