Now I'm a bit curious how a mouse could theoretically be windows only?

IIRC bluetooth mice use basically the USB protocol but through bluetooth instead of a cable.

It says officially so and I couldn’t connect so far, I’ll let you know if I manage to connect it.

What mouse is it?

https://www.rapoo-eu.com/product/mt350/ Ok, Windows, Mac, ChromeOS, iOS and Android, I will probably get to fix it if I have some time.

This one should work via bluetooth, some pages online indicate so, and it would be very rare that a bluetooth mouse does not work on linux.

And it should absolutely work via the little usb dongle that came with the mouse, as for example my logitech wireless mouse even works in my uefi/bios with the usb receiver.

I sadly don't have the right USB-port for it, but I'll try fixing it without the dongle. Which pages?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I just searched for "rapoo mt350 linux" and there were some seller sites which said that it supports linux

For example the amazon entry also indicates this:

https://www.amazon.com/Multi-Device-Wireless-Bluetooth-Pre-Installed-Compatible/dp/B09R1G1MJQ

Operating System ‎Mac OS 7 and above, Linux, Windows 10 and above

But as I said there is literally no reason for why it shouldn't work

Actually, the mouse is broken.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

:( what does broken mean?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The movement-sensitive laser at the desk side of the mouse does not work anymore.
