Script does not detect G203 Lightsync

[techguy16]

When I try and control my G203 Lightsync, the script keeps saying that 046d:c092 is not found.

Can this be fixed

[akzytr]

In the script, change:

g203_lightsync_product_id = 0xc092

to

g203_lightsync_product_id = 0xc09d

This was a issue with libratbag too, I guess logitech added a new product id.

[techguy16]

Libratbag works though.

My G203 LS is 046d:c092 though (according to lsusb).

EDIT: @kritagyag09 the PID you referenced is actually the G102

[akzytr]

Oh well my bad, I have a g203 and it has the referenced ID in my message above.

There is no reason the script should not work if the variables reflect the product and vendor id.

One possible way that the program would not be allowed to access the usb is if it lacks the permission.

Maybe try running the program as roott?

[techguy16]

Tried that before making an issue.

[akzytr]

Can you show the output of the program, along with the command line arguments you give to it?

Hi,
I bought today a brand new G203 Lightsync and have the same issue:

 $ sudo ./g203-led.py lightsync solid 00FFFF
Error: Device 046d:c092 not found.

 $ lsusb | grep G203
Bus 003 Device 022: ID 046d:c09d Logitech, Inc. G203 LIGHTSYNC Gaming Mouse

after making the change @akzytr suggested it works!

[techguy16]

Just pointing out that mine's an older G203 LIGHTSYNC.
