WARNING

This is an unofficial tool, and it's functionality is limited to what I was able to reverse engineer.

SteelSeries does not and will not support GNU/Linux users, so please take your business elsewhere. This tool is for those unfortunate enough to have already purchased this mouse and realized it's crippled under GNU/Linux.
