I have had a Logitech G903 for almost 3 years now, and it worked great under Linux. It had smooth scroll properly working with solaar and I could remap/deactivate buttons with piper.

Now that the G903 seems like it’s going to die (random slowdowns), I’m in the market for a new mouse.

I got a Razer Balistik v3 pro, only to find out that Razer support on Linux is terrible.

So I got the G502 X Plus, hoping it would work like the G903 did, but has a bunch of issues.

For exampe: It’s not recognized by piper, so I cannot remap/disable buttons. While I can change the dpi with solaar, it only stays until I press the thumb-dpi-button, then it switches to a higher dpi and stays there. (had to enable in-memory profile on a windows vm with ghub, to make solaar work) … and many more.

Are there any good wireless mice out there, that have good Linux support?

    It’s not exactly a gaming mouse, but I recently got a Glorious Model O and it works just fine on Linux, wired or wireless. OpenRGB works with it too. The mouse itself is lightweight, comfortable, and accurate, which is all I need. I thought I would miss having a bunch of thumb buttons (this one has two) but I don’t.

      actually, this one looks pretty cool. I too don’t use more than two thumb buttons, which is enough.

      How’s the scroll wheel?

        The scroll wheel is fine, but honestly the one feature I do miss from my old Logitech was a button I could click that put the scroll wheel into free wheel mode where it would spin instead of ratcheting. If Glorious made a mouse with that I would probably buy it tomorrow

        I have the same mouse and the scroll wheel is the best I’ve used on a mouse. The wheel is nice and jaggy, and the movement has no slop whatsoever.

      I also have a Glorious, in my case a Model I (because I have small hands on long fingers). Love the shape, its very comfortable, and how light weight it is. I like it more than my previous Logitech mouse. And the Glorious just works.
