razer-blade-15-linux-config

Some configuration files for running a razer blade 15 on linux. Configurations have been tested on Manjaro Linux.

Touchpad configuration

Seems like the synaptics driver works best. You can have kinetic scrolling and pixelwise scrolling. The config is mac-like, i.e. two finger scrolling, taps are disabled, speed and acceleration feel natural. Install the driver and copy 70-synaptics.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Chromium configuration

Enables two finger history back and next overscroll and activates some hardware acceleration cp chromium-flags.conf ~/.config/

Set keyboard chroma

Install openrazer and run the keyboard_chroma.sh shell script to get green keys except red arrow keys. Note that you might need to adjust $dev to match your keyboard device. To start it automatically copy keyboard.desktop to ~/.config/autostart/ (and ajust the path in keyboard.desktop to keyboard_chroma.sh)

NVidia Optimus

Install optimus-manager, linuxXX-bbswitch, linux-nvidia and copy the optimus-manager.conf to /etc/optimus-manager and enjoy (idle) energy consumption below below 10 W and 8 hours and more "time to empty".

Fix resume after suspend

add button.lid_init_state=open to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and update grub

Terminal font size

copy vconsole.conf to /etc/vconsole.conf and enjoy a readable console font size.
