Hello there, I'm a keychron daily user owning the M3 Wireless Mouse and the K8 Pro Wireless Mechanical Keyboard. I actually know there's not a software for managing all my peripherals for Linux but I was wondering if there were plans in the future to design it.
Hi, Does anyone have experience with using the m6 mouse on iOS devices? Somehow the clicks work but the cursor doesn't move.
I also use fedora KDE and wonder if there's any way to program the mouse. The software isn't out on Linux, which is quite sad as the k10pro works wonderfully.
Hey! Bought a brand new M3, have some difficulties using it with Linux
-
Maybe there is a software to change the color of RGB light? Don't found it at all. If I change it on Mac or Win - would it stay on Linux when reconnect
-
Plugged the 2.4 Ghz adapter in my PC with Linux - there is no reaction at all.
Maybe somebody solved it already? I'm using Arch.
There is software (only runs on Windows and Mac):
"Keychron Engine software allows you to do more personalization, modify keys, set shortcuts, and even your dedicated macros; you can also do professional settings for LOD, polling rate, DPI, etc."
It also says "Fully customizable RGB light"
From How to use Keychron wireless mouse software (my emphasis):
"4. Personalized RGB light effect. You can change the RGB light effect. You can customize the light effect color, breathing speed, color saturation, etc."
Perhaps it is possible to run the configuration software in a virtual machine? I managed to do it for the Rapoo V700RGB (using the freely available Windows 10 Home, incl. enabling USB passthrough in VirtualBox), but I couldn't make it work for the Cooler Master CK550 V2.
This is less daunting using ExplainingComputers' excellent guide which covers the USB port part.

thx, captain.
Just posted this as a comment on a thread in here, but thought it worthwhile to post as a standalone for discoverability.
I just purchased the M6 mouse for my Ubuntu 22.04 laptop.
lsusb indicated the USB-A receiver was recognised by the system (as `ID 3434:d030 Keychron Keychron Link`), but refused to pair.
Plugged it into the supplied cable via the adapter, paired immediately, then switched the receiver back into the laptop direct, maintained the pair and all buttons working 100% without any additional configuration besides tweaking DPI and cursor speed in Settings.
Have not tried the USB-C receiver, as my two USB-C ports are in use for other things (namely, power and external monitor) but the thread indicates this method should work with that too.
The Bluetooth connection works fine, no issues, but I prefer to keep bluetooth turned off
I was wondering if anyone has had any luck using VIA on their Keychron keyboards with Linux. I tried it in Brave since that's the Chromium-based browser I use, but had no success. So I installed and tried it in normal Chromium, but had the same errors. I'd try to authorize the Q1V2, but then get the errors shown below. I switched over to my Windows install on the same computer for the first time in about a year, tried it there, and was able to authorize it in Brave in Windows.
Has anyone else had any success using VIA on their Keychron keyboards in Linux?
