g213colors-gui -t errors out if you have only a G203

[ssokolow]

Like the title says, running g213colors-gui -t (which the systemd task wraps) dies with this error if you only have a G203:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/g213colors-gui", line 166, in <module>
    myG.connectG("G213")
  File "/usr/bin/G213Colors.py", line 68, in connectG
    raise ValueError("USB device not found!")
ValueError: USB device not found!

I had to edit line 173 in /usr/bin/g213colors-gui from myG.connectG("G213") to myG.connectG("G203") to get it to run without erroring out.

the G203 most likely has different product IDs, if you can find out the ids, you could potentially get it to work...

@SebiTimeWaster This fork specifically lists support for the G203 in the README, the other features work, and, if you edit that one line, -t works too. That's why I opened the bug.

The code is there and functional... it's just that the implementation of the -t switch hard-codes an assumption that it's going to be dealing with a G213.

(Source: I've been using my locally patched copy of it with my G203 without issue since I opened this bug.)

myG.connectG("G213") or myG.connectG("G203") indexes into this dict:

idProduct      = {"G213": 0xc336, # The id of the G213
                  "G203": 0xc084} # The id of the G203

didn't know that.
