This would need to add a special driver for the M705 though. The good point is that both the firmware behave the same way when they are switched to the special mode, meaning that we don't need to check the build number and do the switch as soon as we see the M705 PID. > > To enable HID button 6 reporting from thumb button we need to clear > the bit 1 (Special button function) in register 0x01 on the M705 > READ register: 10 IDX 81 01 r0 r1 r2 > Clear Bit1: r0 &= 0xFD; > Write back register: 10 IDX 80 01 r0 r1 r2 > > IDX is the device index on the Unifying receiver. > > Note that if the command is sent to all M705 devices, users that have > the 17.01.Build 0017 will lose the Ac pan and will gain nothing. > For those who wants to try, I have set up a project [1] to implement part of the spec Nestor released. I implemented various features: list devices paired to a receiver, pair/unpair a device, and toggle the button 6 on M705 mouse with the faulty firmware. When switching mode for the M705, as Nestor said, we lose the AC panning ability until the correct remapping is done in the kernel.
