You might have success with that if we can track down the patch that
adds support for that device, but it will need to come via an update
after installation.
I dont think anyone has submitted a patch for this one yet
There was one patch submitted for 07de ( sometime in May ) but that
patch removed the previous ( and current ) entry "07dc" and replaced it
with that one [¹].
When Jiri asked the submitter why he did that ( as opposed to simply add
the new device entry to the pool of existing ones, since obviously the
other manufactored Surface Pro 3 devices in circulation should still
continue to work ) the submitter did not respond, then he resubmitted
the same patch sometime later, Jiri re-asked the same question again and
the submitter came up with no practical reason why he submitted it as is.
If the intent is to support it, both those device entries should be
added ( 07de and 07e2 followed by someone who actually owns these
devices to test this ) with all three exist in total, with whatever
multiple PIDs naming scheme is used upstream
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_MS_TYPE_COVER_3
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_MS_TYPE_COVER_3_07de
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_MS_TYPE_COVER_3_07e2
Or rework them to look the same
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_MS_TYPE_COVER_3_07dc
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_MS_TYPE_COVER_3_07de
#define USB_DEVICE_ID_MS_TYPE_COVER_3_07e2
etc
