Basically: pull out the USB receiver, then plug it in and press the thumb button a couple of times (which is kind of hard without involuntarily moving the mouse). > But, OK, init sequence is more important: Looking for "(DOWN)", there are several device-specific control blocks which resemble those sent by "lomoco" or other mouse tools for configuring Logitech features. > > Example, request 0x9, value 0x210, sent downstream: > > # 002448: Control Transfer (DOWN), 02.04.2010 11:14:55.341 +0.0 > # Pipe Handle: 0x0 > # Recipient: Interface > # Request Type: Class > # Direction: Host->Device > # Request: 0x9 (Unknown) > # Value: 0x210 > # Index: 0x2 > # Length: 0x7 > > My guess is, some new init trigger is required from a userspace tool (only) to enable thumb button, no kernel issue. This is difficult to analyze though w/o the device available and w/o spec.
