    Jesus fucking christ what is it with these agressive fucking responses?

    https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/software/ghub

    Literarily the official website doesn’t support Linux, my Logitech gaming mouse I have to dual boot windows to configure.

    I don’t understand why people can’t simply admit that some shit sucks on Linux.

    Windows is worse, worse for you and your privacy, but some things are simply plug and play for the average person noob on Windows that aren’t on Linux.

    Being honest with people will prepare them to be patient and approach Linux with realistic expectations and they are more likely to stick around.

      There is software on Linux that works with Logitech mice. Changes buttons, dpi, rgb, etc. Simple, and less bloat than ghub (which keeps getting worse).

      Of course, I can’t remember the name. I’ll try to update this when I hope on my PC

        It’s Solaar and it absolutely does not work with all Logitech devices and it does not 100% do what the real software can.

        Again, the blame is fully on Logitech, but the average person simply isn’t going to understand that.

          Solaar didn’t work with my G602 but there was another app called Input Remapper that was built in to Bazzite and that did. Haven’t tried it with my keyboard yet. That said, it doesn’t matter who is to blame. The fact is that not all peripherals will work on Linux and if you have ones that don’t your SOL unless you have to spend a lot of money to replace them.

      You have niche hardware that no one has bothered to reverse engineer. There is niche hardware that works better in Linux too, but you don’t complain about how difficult windows I’d when there is no support for it.

      At least it’s likely to get linux support at done point if it’s popular enough, maybe complain to logitech so they know supporting linux is something their customers want?
