October 31, 2025Oct 31 After discussing the problem in this topic, I am making a new topic here.I am trying to get a docker container of OpenRGB to work and I'm running into some issues: it keeps giving me a warning that there are no udev rules installed for it.Things I've tried:Manually putting 60-openrgb.rules in the correct folders: /boot/config/udev/ and /etc/udev/rules.dWe thought it might be because the rules are applied before docker is loaded, so I tried changing 60-openrgb.rules to 98-openrgb.rules to have it load later. That didn't help either.Manually reloading the udev rules after everything finished booting didn't help either using: udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm triggerTrying another docker container. I've tried three, all of them give the same error: https://github.com/cajuncoding/OpenRGB-GUI-Unraid https://github.com/P3R-CO/openrgb-container https://github.com/swensorm/openrgb-docker Updating Unraid: 6.x.x, 7.1.4 and 7.2.0 all have the same problem.I'm currently running Unraid version 7.2.0 with all relevant containers up to date. I'm running linux on my desktop as well (Mint 22) and the error got solved immediately by adding 60-openrgb.rules to the correct folder. So I am surprised Unraid is giving me trouble. Anyone have any ideas?

In order to do that I need to accomplish two things: 1) I need the udev warning to go away. 2) I need to get the OpenRGB docker to accept plugins. It should, but it doesn't. However I'm focussing on the udev rules first.7 hours ago, bmartino1 said:As stated in taht feature request to have udev rules. and to use themso mkdir /boot/confI have added the modprobe i2c lines 7 hours ago, bmartino1 said:https://www.reddit.com/r/unRAID/comments/glry47/rgb_lighting_control_for_unraid_finally/This is one of the images I tried, to no avail. 7 hours ago, bmartino1 said: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/129640-openrgb-and-i2c/ As stated in taht feature request to have udev rules. and to use themso mkdir /boot/config/udevcd /boot/config/udevtouch 99-example.ruleI have added the modprobe lines to the go-file.

November 2, 2025Nov 2 Community Expert in the daig I need to know the syslog, the lsusb and the lspci. Diag is not that big or problematic ther other usefull uraid data in there needed for general I first nee to know if your uising the i2c wire and conecting the rgb to the board or via USB. As that will cahnge and ditcated things.Thank you for the rules file your applying... as I suspected some if not most of theses itesm are failing due to too earlier in boot. the modprobe comand needs ran before theses run to actauil run...(udev loads before the go file...) as stated udev is not the way here for unraid. linux mint adn unraid are 2 seperate sytems with major kerneal and cores system setups.-You don't need the go file(techncialy) but you definetly don't need udev eitehr... IN order to use and run this on unraid you have 3 choices.1 LXC, 2 Docker, 3 plugin. depending on how you run the OpenRGB software that contorls the hardware and how you pass the i2c hardware into the docker/LXC or what the plugin seees... is the questions. Really needed the diag to confrim what unraid was seeing device wise.. sylog to confirm udev and other loads including what was in the go file / grub comand line...(we can add a syslinux grub comand line to ad the mopropbe before the udev and go file loads per example but that is if udev was truly needed, and its not!) Different prblems require different soultions and work arounds... I have had a simalr AMD board and simalry RGB setup and the soultion came down to a user script at first array start that grabed verfied and used the device in a docker...modprabe in teh go file(i do't like editng the go file) can be same lines in a user script... the docker passing the /dev device for open rgb puts you in a supported linux os like area where teh software can run...so I would need the device ID that is your Corsair Lighting Node and what unraid see to identfy it to further assist.Yo may get faster and better support in teh discord..https://forums.unraid.net/topic/91935-support-p3r-openrgb-controller/https://github.com/P3R-CO/openrgb-container so your job atm is mkae sure the modprobe coamdns ran by first array stat and to verify the /dev/i2c exist and is your RGB. then install the openrgb docker and pass the /dev/i2c device with in...Then you can use openrgb to edit and set the rgb...ON linux mint due tot he comunicty custom devcie firm wares and the abilty to run the software direct.
