kelvie / gbmonctl Goto Github PK

Hey, I'm trying to install this on Windows, but I can't get it to work. It seems like this tool doesn't work on WSL (I figure the necessary sys calls aren't passed properly) and I can't figure out how to install it on native Windows.

I've tried various permutations of this (back slash, forward slash, trailing slash, moving its location, quotes, etc. but it hasn't worked:

PS C:\Users\myuser> set CGO_CFLAGS=-IC:\Users\myuser\.hidapi\include
PS C:\Users\myuser> set CGO_LDFLAGS=-LC:\Users\myuser\.hidapi\x64
PS C:\Users\myuser> go install github.com/kelvie/gbmonctl@latest
# github.com/sstallion/go-hid
go\pkg\mod\github.com\sstallion\[email protected]\hid.go:38:10: fatal error: hidapi/hidapi.h: No such file or directory
   38 | #include <hidapi/hidapi.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Is there any instructions for how to find new settings?

Hi Kelvie,

Apologies for opening an issue about this, but I was wondering if you could help me understand what this piece of code is doing:

I'm trying to build a lighter version of sidekick to easily swap inputs from the tray, and I'm trying to use your code as "live" documentation. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hello,
I have two M27Q, with which this operates greatly. Only issue is with KVM control, as i have dual monitor setup.
If i run
gbmonctl -prop kvm-switch -val 1 one of the two screen changes to other machine, but in order to switch second screen, I have to run the same command while other screen is in connection phase.

It would be nice to have an ability to select which of two (or more) screens command operates on.

This program uses the hidraw device in /dev/hidrawX to control it, but it looks like fwupd causes it to be deleted shortly after it's added if it's running.

The solution I've found is to uninstall fwupd.

See:
fwupd/fwupd#3835

Felt like its worthwhile to share my monitor was supported. Ty for this!

There are commands for setting property values. But how to retrieve the value of a property?
That would be useful.

Recently found this tool because the button my Gigabyte M32WQ monitor broke. It works remarkably well and would love support for increasing and decreasing the volume.
