It is able to pair/unpair devices to the receiver, and for +most devices read battery status. + +It comes in two flavors, command-line and GUI. Both are able to list the +devices paired to a Unifying Receiver, show detailed info for each +device, and also pair/unpair supported devices with the receiver. + +Solaar will detect all devices paired with your Unifying Receiver, and +at the very least display some basic information about them. For some +devices, extra settings (usually not available through the standard +Linux system configuration) are supported. + +By default, the udev rule +/etc/udev/rules.d/42-logitech-unifying-receiver.rules +allows all members of the plugdev group to have read/write access to the +Unifying Receiver device. Therefore, make sure all desktop users are +part of the plugdev group: +usermod -a -G plugdev <username> + +After installation, you must physically remove the Unifying Receiver and +re-insert it for the device node permissions to take effect for the +first time. |
