I just received my keyboard , it was functional but i wanted to set RGB to my liking and use some advanced features .So i tried chromium based browser and appimage wootility app to try that , but it did not worked . I set udev rules prior to receiving my keyboard , so all was set to be just plug and play .
After comparing logs with another wooting linux user ( he has a two HE v2 ) , we could not find what was wrong , i did everything per wooting website FAQ .
But i got a snnneaaking suspicion and after adding my 80HE to udev rules = bingo everything worked flawlessly.

add those two actives new lines in your wooting.rules file :

SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="31e3", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1402", MODE:="0660", GROUP="input", TAG+="uaccess"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="31e3", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1402", MODE:="0660", GROUP="input", TAG+="uaccess"

i think FAQ need to be updated .
I am using Debian 12 (but i also think it does not matter what flavor you are using)

This is the guide we link on the wootility page on our main website. it sets up a generic rule for all of our products by just specifying our vendor id without any product id.

is this what you followed? if not could you link what you followed?

scenic glacier

this is what i followed but i had to add new entries specific for 80HE for wootility to actually work .

jade olive
#

huh

#

@scenic dawn iirc you run a linux framework laptop for work. can you check this if you have time?

scenic dawn

Strange. All I have in my rules is

SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="31e3", TAG+="uaccess"

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="31e3", TAG+="uaccess"
#

and i set this up on another new pc recently which was also running debian and followed the same guide for that

#

what entries did you include for 80he

scenic glacier
#

SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="31e3", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1402", MODE:="0660", GROUP="input", TAG+="uaccess"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="31e3", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1402", MODE:="0660", GROUP="input", TAG+="uaccess"

#

i think i made an oopsie when updating a few days ago to include tag uaccess

scenic dawn
#

even my 60he v2 works with the generic rule

jade olive
#

the generic one is now all 1 line

scenic dawn
#

jade olive
#

scenic glacier
#

#

i reload the rules , and use appimage , it worked

#

might be because i got a firmware update right after i made my changes

jade olive
#

shouldnt be related to firmware unless you mean firmware of your pc

scenic glacier
#

i mean keyboard firmware

jade olive
#

yeah no we dont change the vendor id or such

scenic dawn
