Wireless mouse not working 12.04

**Zeus1987** · June 21st, 2012

Hello,

I have issues with my newly bought Canyon Stealth wireless mouse (CNL-MBMSOW02). The pointer doesn't move, the clicks don't work, nothing. The receiver is getting picked up, though, I think (see below)

I have searched through a lot of threads on this forum and other forums, but no solution as of yet.

Some basic info:
Motherboard AsRock 939N68PV-GLAN
AMD Athlon 64 3500+
1 GB RAM

Things I have tried:
- The mouse of course has good batteries, it's new
- I tried plugging the dongle into every USB port
- I ran lsusb, got this:

Code:

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c317 Logitech, Inc. Wave Corded Keyboard
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 1d57:0001

The "1d57:0001" is obviously the receiver, as it disappears if I remove it and run lsusb again

- I ran xinput --list, got this:

Code:

jernej@trtnik-ubuntu:~$ xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse              	id=11	[slave  pointer  (2)]

    ↳ Power Button                            	id=7	[slave  keyboard (3)]

    ↳ Logitech USB Multimedia Keyboard        	id=9	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ 2.4G KB 2.4G Mouse                      	id=10	[slave  keyboard (3)]

I also tried re-enabling it via xinput set-int-prop 10 "Device Enabled" 8 0, as suggested by one of the threads in this forum.

- It works just fine in Windows 7
- Oddly enough, it also worked fine during a live ubuntu session and also during the reinstallation of the ubuntu OS

Please understand that I am a complete newbie and this is my first linux-operated pc.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you

Bump.

I'm having a very similar problem. Sometimes I an get the mouse to work by unplugging/replugging the USB dongle a few times.

Have you found a resolution?

I was considering making a thread about this, but I have the same exact problem. The mouse was working during installation and then a reboot and now it won't move, but it is detected with lusb. hmm. A bug?

Edit: My laptop is a Y570 with a Logitech M705 mouse, by the way, for anyone that may find that useful.

I haven't found a solution yet. I'm still waiting for any helpful information from my friends or this forum. For now i use the old PS/2 mouse, which, of course, works flawlessly. The wireless mouse is only being used in Windows for now.

I'm being optimistic and hoping that canyon will come up with linux drivers for it...
