CKB-next doesn't remember settings after restart

Question

Issue by MaxHaydenChiz Saturday Feb 04, 2017 at 20:25 GMT Originally opened as https://github.com/mattanger/ckb-next/issues/61

I'm using Ubuntu with a K95 RGB and upgraded to CKB-next to try to fix a problem that CKB was having, but it only partially fixed my issue.

After quitting CKB-next and restarting it (or rebooting or logging out and back in), it always sets the keyboard back to the CKB demo profile. Unlike with the original CKB, it still remembers my custom profile, but I have to select it manually and I can't seem to get rid of or change the demo or HwProfile1 (they just come back like they were before). Furthermore, the custom profile loses all the animation settings and only remembers key colors.

What do I need to do to figure out why this is happening and help get it fixed? I would think it would be a permission issue on some configuration file or something else that is keeping it from saving changes, but I don't know enough about the software to know what to look for.

First of all, close the ckb-next gui. Once you do that, open a terminal, install strace, and run

strace -e open ckb 2>&1 | grep ".config"

. That should launch ckb. Once it opens, try deleting the defaults that won't go away. And then close ckb from the menu again.

Once that is done, please attach the output of the strace command.
