I was shopping around for a mouse for gaming. After reading the reviews, I found that I wanted to give the Microsoft Sidewinder x8 a try (previously had a Logitech G5 that broke). It works great in Windows, which I dual boot on my gaming machine. However, when I try to use it in Linux…it doesn’t operate at all. (2.6.26 kernel)
Googling around hasn’t turned up much at all…so I figured I’d ask here. So…here goes:
Dear lazyweb, has anyone gotten the Sidewinder x8 or x5 laser mouse to work in Linux and if so, can you point me in the right direction in the comments?
