Saitek wireless mouse doesn't work because recognized wrong

[Anton Khalikov]

When I plug in the mouse stick into usb, the following appears on dmesg:

[ 638.764127] usb 2-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
[ 638.935457] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[ 639.037668] usbcore: registered new interface driver hiddev
[ 639.060385] input: 2.4GHz 2way RF Mouse Receiver as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.0/input/input10
[ 639.060715] generic-usb 0003:1BCF:0535.0001: input,hiddev96,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [2.4GHz 2way RF Mouse Receiver] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input0
[ 639.060757] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid
[ 639.060765] usbhid: v2.6:USB HID core driver

but actually the mouse doesn't work at all. I guess this is because Ubuntu thinks it's a keyboard device according to `xinput list`:

"2.4GHz 2way RF Mouse Receiver" id=9 [XExtensionKeyboard]
 Type is KEYBOARD
 Num_keys is 248
 Min_keycode is 8
 Max_keycode is 255
 Num_buttons is 16
 Num_axes is 2
 Mode is Relative
 Motion_buffer is 256
 Axis 0 :
  Min_value is -1
  Max_value is -1
  Resolution is 1
 Axis 1 :
  Min_value is -1
  Max_value is -1
  Resolution is 1

Any ideas how to fix it ?

P.S. ubuntu 9.10 but same happened with 9.04 as well

Hello
Is this problem present with the latest updated Karmic's, Lucid's or Maverick's packages?
Thanks in advance
Fabio

I have similar problem with clone of M$ Arc wireless mouse, it doesn't work at all. dmesg gives:

[ 2143.704892] usb 3-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 5
[ 2143.926828] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

tried it on Ubuntu 8.04LTS and on Ubuntu 10.10 (netbook)

[Miikka Pyy (anestic95)]

My dmesg gives pretty the same, but at the end it says USB-device disconnected. My mouse is a decent copycat.

[Miikka Pyy (anestic95)]

Sorry. Running 11.10.

[madbiologist (me-again)]

Does this still occur on Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal"?
