Logitech Master 2S Arch Linux

Introduction

Set the vertical scroll (Wheel) speed and set thumb wheel to be arrow keys left right. Solution:

• The vertical scroll speed is managed easiest by Solaar.
• The thumb wheel to arrow keys is done using xbindkeys. Restart that before using kdenlive.

Use

xev

to see the inputs of the mouse.

Thumb wheel on GIMP does horizontal scrolling for buttons 6 and 7, also thumb wheel.

Scroll Speed

Logid

Install following the instructions, but cannot find the mouse:

sudo logid -v
[INFO] Config file does not exist, using empty config.
[DEBUG] Unsupported device /dev/hidraw3 ignored
[DEBUG] Ignoring virtual node on /dev/hidraw1
[INFO] Detected receiver at /dev/hidraw0

It should say also:

[INFO] Device found: Wireless Mouse MX Master 3 on /dev/hidraw1:1

or something similar. But it didn't.

After changing the configuration file (/etc/logid.cfg), you need to run

sudo systemctl restart logid

for the changes to be taken into account.

Solaar

[[File:Solaar scrollspeed.png|thumb]Set Scroll Speed Resolution.]

Finds the mouse, and the settings for vertical scroll speed is called scroll speed resolution.

Remove the USB dongle and plug it back, after switching smooth scrolling option in Solaar.

xinput set-prop 9 'Device Accel Constant Deceleration' 3

• The correct one is 'Evdev Scrolling Distance', but I can't seem to get it to go faster than 1 1 1.
• For me it was xinput set-prop 10 'libinput Accel Speed' 1

Thumb Wheel

According to

xev

the the thumb wheel acts as activating buttons 6 and 7 on scroll.

Solaar (again)

Enable the thumbwheel diversion has an effect on xev.

Try to run using solaar -ddd

The Solaar document page is here: https://pwr-solaar.github.io/Solaar/rules

https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxhardware/comments/t7dque/deleted_by_user/

The config file is

.config/solaar/rules.yaml

or not. Couldn't find it.

Xbindkeys

https://devicetests.com/configure-logitech-mx-master-thumb-button-meta-key-ubuntu Need

• xbindkeys binds the keys
• xautomation automates tasks in X, including a tool to simulate keyboard input
• x11-utils

Didn't work:

• xdotool

Good(?) tutorial: https://www.nielsvm.eu/kdetips/binding-mouse-buttons-to-keyboard-shortcuts/ Following that tutoria enables to write eg "k" to the terminal:

# Bind thumb wheel mouse button to Ctrl+F9
"xte 'key k'"
  b:7

after restarting xbindkeys. To find the key, use eg

xbindkeys --key

So, the xbindkeys rule is

"xte 'key Left'"
  b:6
"xte 'key Right'"
  b:7
