    It seems that I found solution to udev rule problem with USB base station used to connect 2 devices (mouse + keyboard). I've tested it on Logitech MX3100 (keyboard + MX1000 mouse). It seems that it works.

    I analyzed files and directories in /sys/class/input/input1 (keyboard) and /sys/class/input/input2 (mouse) and noticed that /sys/class/input/input1/device/bInterfaceNumber and /sys/class/input/input2/device/bInterfaceNumber are diffrent.
    bInterfaceNumber for input1 (keyboard) is 00 and for input2 (mouse) - 01.
    This is modified udev rule which utilizes this fact:
    Code:
    KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", SYSFS{../name}=="Logitech USB Receiver", SYSFS{../device/bInterfaceNumber}=="01", NAME="input/event9"
    I guess that
    Code:
    KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", SYSFS{../device/bInterfaceNumber}=="01", NAME="input/event9"
    should be enough.

    Can someone test it and check whether it works or not?

    @ztripez - You have a bit diffrent hardware but you can try this udev rule. If, however, it won't work, solution to your problem is probably similar.
    It works for me too, I've removed my blacklist and so activate pcskr and with your udev it's working perfectly. Thanks again, again and ... again

    I have a MX518 and I have gotten the back and forward and app switcher buttons to work but I cant get the dpi up and down buttons to work. I am not really sure what to try next as I am pretty new to getting stuff working under linux.

    raistlin@dragonstear:~$ cat /proc/bus/input/devices
    I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0001 Product=0001 Version=ab41

    raistlin@dragonstear:~$ sudo lmctl -8
    001.003: 046d:0a01 Unknown or Unsupported Logitech device
    002.002: 046d:c01e Unknown or Unsupported Logitech device
    ./xbindkeysrc
    "/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Alt_L]\[Left]""
    m:0x0 + b:6
    "/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Alt_L]\[Right]""
    m:0x0 + b:7
    "/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[x]""
    m:0x0 + b:8

    Also,under xev the dpi up and down buttons do not register events at all.

    Did you edit xorg.conf in order to use evdev? Default driver doesn't register events from all buttons.

    Re: HOWTO: Configuring Logitech mice in Ubuntu 6.06: New Guide

    Yes I did, this is what I added to it:

    Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Configured Mouse"
    Driver "evdev"
    Option "CorePointer"
    Option "Device" "/dev/input/event9" #this should be that underlined name from 19-local.rules
    EndSection

    I replaced LMCtl with lomoco in the tutorial, try that instead of LMCtl.

    I'm assuming that they are now hooked up by USB, as they wouldn't be able to work with evdev on PS/2.

    The kernel USB drivers don't recognize some media keys, so if you can't get anything in xev when you press media keys, most likely you won't be able to get them to work without patching the kernel (which I'm not all too sure about how to do).
    Oddly, the kernel recognizes *most* of the keys for me, but only without evdev on. Granted, some aren't there and some appear as mouse buttons, but the media keys themselves were fine.

    I think this is more related to evdev's handling of mouse/keyboard receiver combos (MX Cordless Desktop here) than kernel problems, at least for some buttons.

    Might be both, but the kernel issue is a known one for some keyboards.

    Re: HOWTO: Configuring Logitech mice in Ubuntu 6.06: New Guide

    Okay got the cruise buttons to work with lomoco. They now change the DPI on the fly no problem. But they still dont create an event in xev. What I want to get done is be able to map them to a key say F for use as a keybind in games. Not sure what im doing wrong if im just over looking something since im a newb. I followed the guild exactly and everything works just fine.

    I confirm that.That's my case - extra keys stop working when evdev is enabled in xorg.conf (though evdev is turned on theoretically only for mouse). I found quite interesting topic on Gentoo forum - http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-445810.html Maybe we should try newer version of evdev? But guys from Gentoo forum probably used the newest one...

    UPDATE: I've checked Xorg CVS - evdev 1.1.2 is the newest one. It's already included in Ubuntu.

    Well, I guess we could try using the evdev driver for the keyboard as well, although I don't know what the results will be.
