notes

BlackWidow Keyboards do not have any onboard memory for macros Razer use software for macro functionality in windows.

You can however use 'xmacro' in linux

You can also use xmodmap or your WM to allocate functions to the macro key keycodes.

To find all connected Razer devices you can use: lsusb -d 1532:

extending

I have added a sample udev rule to udev/99-bwidow.rules which can be placed into /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-bwidow.rules

To install this you can do make cpudev

To remove you can do make rmudev
