WARNING: Many features are developed in tandem with kernel patches. If you see a feature is missing you either need a patched kernel or latest release.
asusd is a utility for Linux to control many aspects of various ASUS laptops
but can also be used with non-asus laptops with reduced features.
Now includes a GUI, rog-control-center.
The minimum supported kernel version is 6.10, which will contain the patches from here. This is especially required for 2023+ devices and possibly some lat 2022 devices.
Z13 devices will need these
X11 is not supported at all, as in I will not help you with X11 issues if there are any due to limited time and it being unmaintained itself. You can however build rog-control-center with it enabled cargo build --features "rog-control-center/x11".
The main goal of this work is to provide a safe and easy to use abstraction over various laptop features via DBUS, and to provide some helpful defaults and other behaviour such as toggling throttle/profile on AC/battery change.
- Provide safe dbus interface
- Respect the users resources: be small, light, and fast
Point 4? asusd currently uses a tiny fraction of cpu time, and less than 1Mb of ram, the way a system-level daemon should. Languages such as JS and python should never be used for system level daemons (please stop).
The level of support for laptops is dependent on folks submitting data to include in ./rog-aura/data/layouts/aura_support.ron, typically installed in /usr/share/asusd/aura_support.ron. This is because the controller used for keyboards and LEDs is used across many years and many laptop models, all with different firmware configurations - the only way to track this is with the file mentioned above. Why not just enable all by default? Because it confuses people.
See the rog-aura readme for more details.
Most ASUS gaming laptops that have a USB keyboard. If lsusb shows something similar
to this:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0b05:1866 ASUSTek Computer, Inc. N-KEY Device
or
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0b05:19b6 ASUSTek Computer, Inc. [unknown]
then it may work without tweaks. Technically all other functions except the LED and AniMe parts should work regardless of your latop make.
The list is a bit outdated as many features have been enabled in the Linux kernel with upstream patches and then supported in asusctl suite.
- System daemon
- GUI app (includes tray and notifications)
- Setting/modifying built-in LED modes
- Per-key LED setting
- Fancy LED modes (See examples) (currently being reworked)
- AniMatrix display on G14 and M16 models that include it
- Set battery charge limit (with kernel supporting this)
- Fan curve control on supported laptops (G14/G15, some TUF like FA507)
- Toggle bios setting for boot/POST sound
- Toggle GPU MUX (g-sync, or called MUX on 2022+ laptops)
A gui is now in the repo - ROG Control Center. At this time it is still a WIP, but it has almost all features in place already.
NOTE: Xorg is not supported.
Rust and cargo are required, they can be installed from rustup.rs or from the distro repos if newer than 1.75.

=======
The default init method is to use the udev rule, this ensures that the service is started when the device is initialised and ready.
You may also need to activate the service for debian install. If running Pop!_OS, I suggest disabling system76-power gnome-shell extension and systemd service.
If you are upgrading from a previous installed version, you will need to restart the service or reboot.
$ systemctl daemon-reload && systemctl restart asusd
Run sudo make uninstall in the source repo, and remove /etc/asusd/.
See CONTRIBUTING.md. Additionally, also do cargo clean and cargo test on first checkout to ensure the commit hooks are used (via cargo-husky).
Generation of the bindings with make bindings requires typeshare to be installed.
Dbus introsepction XML requires with make introspection requires anime_sim to be running before starting asusd.
A simulator using SDL2 can be built using cargo build --package rog_simulators and run with ./target/debug/anime_sim. Once started asusd will need restarting to pick it up. If running this sim on a laptop with the display, the simulated display will be used instead of the physical display.
