Logitech Adds 'Linux Compatible' Option

As rich as the Linux OS is, one of its sticking-points is that a lot of companies don't properly support their products for it. Your Logitech mouse might work just fine under the OS, of course, but it wouldn't be the company to thank; rather, the support comes from the efforts of developers who share the same passion for the OS as you do. My ASUS Xonar audio card works brilliantly under Linux, but ASUS had nothing to do with it.

Hahaha ......  so Logitech puts up one mouse with 'Linux Compatible' tagged to it, and it is a big deal?

One of the biggest wants I've heard from new users giving Linux a go is the lack of such software, and while Logitech still isn't offering any for this specific model, it could happen. If it does, it's going to be a rather major Linux event. If Logitech does it, others might as well.

......  and if pigs fly we could easily have ....... 

It might happen, but that hardly warrants Rob Williams writing this speculation.

I think it's a pretty big thing that they even recognize us...   ::)
