It requires PulseAudio to work (default in Ubuntu).\n\nFor an easy-to-use PPA, use: https://launchpad.net/~stefansundin/+archive/ubuntu/powermate\n\n\n# Disclaimer\n\nPowerMate is a registered trademark of Griffin Technologies Inc. This software is not affiliated or endorsed by them.\n\nThis software is written by Stefan Sundin and is licensed under GPLv3.\n\n\n# Installation\n\nBinaries are available [in the releases section](https://github.com/stefansundin/powermate-linux/releases).\n\n## Clone Repository\n\n```bash\n$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/stefansundin/powermate-linux.git\n$ cd powermate-linux\n```\n\n## Setup udev rule\n\n```bash\n$ sudo cp 60-powermate.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/\n```\n\nAfter copying the file, unplug and plug the device back in.\n\n## Compile\n\nInstall requirements and then compile:\n\n```bash\n$ sudo apt-get install libpulse-dev libnotify-dev\n$ make\n```\n\n## Run\n\nSimply run the executable with `./powermate`.\n\nThe program should be able to handle the device being disconnected and connected without problems.\n\nMake it run automatically on login somehow. If you are running a standard desktop environment then there is usually a \"Startup Applications\" preference. This is automatically installed if you use the PPA.\n\nYou can use `./powermate -d` to daemonize the program without having to update the config file.\n\n\n# Configuration\n\nBy default, the program changes the volume when you turn the knob clockwise and counter clockwise, but you are able to customize the program to do anything via [the configuration file](powermate.toml).\n\nPress the knob to mute. Hold down the knob for one second to toggle the LED. Operation is the same except the LED stays off.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fstefansundin%2Fpowermate-linux","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fstefansundin%2Fpowermate-linux","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fstefansundin%2Fpowermate-linux/lists"}
