Re: Solution to get Gigabyte K8100 Aivia USB Gaming Keyboard working in Linux

Hello,

I just noticed something weird... It seems this keyboard has a gaming
mode and a "normal" mode. In "gaming" mode you have to higher the
MAX_HID_USAGES to get the keyboard to work...

...you can switch to normal mode by pressing: shift+ctrl+alt+n, which
makes the keyboard work in linux without the MAX_HID_USAGES highered to
64K (it took me nearly a year to find out...) - Wondering if that still
can be considered a bug which requires a fix?

To switch back you issue shift+ctrl+alt+g and the keys stop working.
Here's some more output from dmesg:
