How to make Logitech Anywhere MX work in Ubuntu 12.X?
- by alfC
I have a Logitech Anywhere MX mouse (wireless), when I connect it to the computer it doesn't work.
The mouse works in other computers with Windows and with Fedora 17, but it doesn't work in two different computers with Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10. Moreover these same computers work with another Microsoft wireless mouse.
So I think the combination of Logitech MX and Ubuntu doesn't play well.
The dmesg log entry looks like this:
[ 578.845838] usb 3-2: Product: USB Receiver
[ 578.845841] usb 3-2: Manufacturer: Logitech

[ 578.854518] logitech-djreceiver: probe of 0003:046D:C52B.0009 failed with error -32
Instead of the expected (taken from Fedora):
