Public bug reported: cat /proc/version_signature Ubuntu 3.11.0-20.34-generic 3.11.10.6 ---------------- My specific case is with a Zalman ZM-M401R.
The current solution is recompilation of the kernel, which works, but unfortunately turns downloading a kernel update into a huge chore. Please fix this upstream. Some other experiences: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2204588 http://askubuntu.com/questions/232564/sharkoon-drakonia-gaming-mouse-doesnt-work-at-all There are literally dozens of reports about various usb gaming peripherals not working correctly due to this. Following the solution in the second link works well, but perhaps it would be better for HID_MAX_USAGES to be revised to either be a sysctl or updated to reflect newish hardware? This is my first bug report, be gentle. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "lsusb for this particular mouse." https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1316768/+attachment/4106738/+files/zalman%20mouse%20lsusb.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1316768 Title: Gaming mice often don't work out of the box on Ubuntu.
