[deleted] I ordered a Logitech G403 Prodigy - apparently it has a onboard memory so i can store whatever macro i want to the top button! Ill let you know when it arrives after the weekend - thanks forall the replies 🙂

Got the mouse a couple of minutes ago, installed piper with libratbag, fired it up and set my keys the way i like it and that was that.

Hassle free! loving it!

edit: spoke too soon! Turns out it doesnt save to onboard memory so when i reboot the rgb goes crazy until i login and the drivers gets to do their thing. Still loving it 😛

      AlucardNoir I had the g502 proteus core which i think is pretty similar to the spectrum and tbh i dont need that many buttons or the "snipe button" - so i went with the cheaper alternative! 🙂

          Logitech M570 Thumb-operated trackball.
          Works quite well with Solus, with no extra installations necessary.

          [deleted] It's identical, the feet are all that was changed, and now the core in Hero. But yeah, that makes sense.

          That being said, I personally go with a full, cut/copy/paste for the snipe/back/forewords button and a delete/gshift for the DPI button, with the g-shift giving me enter on snipe and DPI on the back/forewords buttons - and that's just the desktop profile. And I still miss my horizontal thumb wheel from the time I had a R.A.T. 5. That made things so much simpler.

          Though it's funny really, most people just go with a vim keyboard bindings and a window manager, I buy a 100$ mouse and map the most useful keyboard shortcuts on it.

            I use wired mice
            Oldest Logitech weighted gaming mouse don't remember the series I have worn all markers off that mouse.
            Next oldest Steelseries same thing, although the LEDs still work in it also.
            Newest is a Blackweb RGB 7 button programmable.

            Logitech M220.Working great.

            Just started using the Elecom M-DT2 "Deft" wireless, forefinger-operated, 8-button trackball.
            Basic mouse functionality works well - there was no need to install extra drivers.

            Solus does not recognize the three 'function' buttons, or the wheel's tilt-clicks, though, so mapping the extra buttons is a bit of a challenge.

            I use a Zowie FK2. Driverless, adjustable DPI, ambidextrous, and has two thumb buttons. Detent scroll wheel. A little expensive, but overall very happy with it.

              Solarmass The mouse is symmetrical from side-to-side, yes. (Even the thumb buttons are mirrored, so it technically has four of them 🙂 --though they can't be programmed to do four separate things.)

                My favorite all-time mouse is the Logitech Marathon M705 but it's finally wearing out after 12 years. Now trying out the Logitech M720 Triathlon.

                do razer mice work out of the box? as in basic clicking, cursor movement, or are any of the razer packages in the respos needed? or are they mostly for customizing LEDS and button behaviour etc?

                  Logitech M510. Six of those on computers in this house. Inexpensive, absolutely reliable, and does everything a mouse needs to do.

                  Logitech MX Master. I have one for home and one at work, with a receiver in each of my computers. I set them to different channels so I can use the mouse with whatever computer I happen to be using just by changing the channel (and not having to switch dongles around).

                  I use solaar from the repo to sync/manage it and it shows the battery level in the system tray.

                    Logitech MX Master for my work machine. Logitech G502 Lightspeed for my gaming machine.

                    from the dark side i have a microsoft comfort mouse 6000, and I have to say the device works perfectly

                    Lucien_Lachance The mouse itself will work fine without installing anything. If you want to change settings (especially RGB) you'll want to install polychromatic. That will pull in the openrazer drivers for the extra functionality. It can be a little bit buggy regarding default settings, but it's what I use for my Naga Trinity.
