ckb is an open-source driver for Corsair RGB keyboards and mice, bringing CUE-like features such as full RGB animations to Linux and OS X. It includes a driver daemon and a Qt5 GUI, but the project is no longer maintained in favor of ckb-next.
Use cases
- control corsair keyboard rgb lighting on linux
- configure corsair mouse lighting on mac
- replace corsair cue software on linux
- set up rgb animations for k70 rgb keyboard
- remap buttons on a scimitar rgb mouse
- manage corsair peripherals without proprietary software
When to choose
- you need RGB control for legacy Corsair keyboards or mice on Linux or macOS and cannot use ckb-next
- you want an open-source alternative to Corsair's proprietary CUE software
When to avoid
- you want an actively maintained driver - use ckb-next instead
- you need support for newer Corsair devices released after 2019
- you run Windows, where official Corsair software exists
