 Posted: Fri Apr 23, 2021 2:10 pm Post subject: Can't make Logiops working using OpenRC. |
 |
|
Hi, I raised a bug for Logiops on their Guthub page, but I didn't get any help from there.
That's why I'll try my luck here. BTW this is my first try to create a service in OpenRC.
Here is the bug I reported:
I'm trying to run logiops using OpenRC, but loading the system gets stuck when starting the service (keyboard is working but loading doesn't continue).
I'm using Gentoo, kernel 5.11.9 (now I'm on 5.11.15) with uinput enabled (Logiops was getting an error before re-building the kernel with this option enabled).
Looks like it just doesn't run on the background as a service.
I created a file in /etc/init.d with name logid
In the file I put:
| Code: | #!/sbin/openrc-run
description="Logiops service"
command="/usr/local/bin/logid"
command_arg="-c /etc/logid.cfg"
command_user="root"
depend() {
use clock logger
need localmount
} |
I commented out the depend part and tried to run it with rc-service logid start. The service starts but it never gets to command prompt until I kill it with ctrl-c.
When I tested it with -v option, everything is working fine. But again I have to kill it in order to get back to the prompt.
I tried running it on the background in .xinitrc, but this was a bad idea, I only got a black screen.
I have Logiops working on the same computer running Pop OS just fine.
I'm using the same mouse MX Master 3.
Here is my config file:
| Code: | devices: (
{
name: "Wireless Mouse MX Master 3";
smartshift:
{
on: false;
threshold: 10; # 7 is ideal for work
};
hiresscroll:
{
hires: true;
invert: false;
target: false;
};
dpi: 1500;# <- you may change this number. 4000 is the maximum.
buttons: (
{
cid: 0xc3;
action =
{
type: "Keypress";
keys: ["KEY_F5"];
};
},
{
cid: 0xc4;
action =
{
type = "ToggleSmartshift";
};
},
{
cid: 0x56;
action =
{
type: "Keypress";
keys: ["KEY_LEFTCTRL", "KEY_C"];
};
},
{
cid: 0x53;
action =
{
type: "Keypress";
keys: ["KEY_LEFTCTRL", "KEY_V"];
};
}
);
}
); |

Hi
Welcome to Gentoo forums!
It starts fine in my box
| Code: |
cat /etc/init.d/logid
#!/sbin/openrc-run
# Copyright 1999-2021 Gentoo Authors
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
logid_config="/etc/logid.cfg"
name="Logitech Configuration Daemon"
pidfile="${RC_PREFIX}/run/logid.pid"
command="${RC_PREFIX}/usr/bin/logid"
command_background="true"
command_args="-c ${logid_config}"
start_pre() {
if [ ! -f "${logid_config}" ]; then
eerror "The file '${logid_config}' could not be found!"
eerror "Please create one before you start the daemon."
exit 1
fi
}
lake ~ # /etc/init.d/logid start
* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ]
* Starting Logitech Configuration Daemon ...
lake ~ #
|
Among many other things this was missing in your logid init file
command_background="true"
Just emerge it with USE="-systemd"
Default iuse is with "systemd"
