Users arriving from Logitech Options+ or LogiOps look for a list of behaviours and instead have to discover that a button does nothing until its diversion is changed, and that some things are settings with no rule at all. That split is the usual reason a first rule appears not to fire. Add a page that walks through one device end to end: which of its buttons can be diverted and under what names, the settings that need no rules, a diverted button driving a key combination, mouse gestures, and the thumb wheel — including the integer argument to the thumb wheel tests, without which a wheel action fires far too often to be useful. Also covers what does not carry over from LogiOps: control ids are not used, key names are X11 key symbols rather than evdev names, and running both daemons against one device makes settings appear to revert at random. Records which conditions are limited under Wayland, since actions go through uinput and do work there, while Modifiers and Process do not. Contents checked against an MX Master 3S on a Logi Bolt receiver. |

Solaar
Solaar is a Linux manager for many Logitech keyboards, mice, and other devices that connect wirelessly to a Unifying, Bolt, Lightspeed or Nano receiver as well as many Logitech devices that connect via a USB cable or Bluetooth. Solaar is not a device driver and responds only to special messages from devices that are otherwise ignored by the Linux input system.
