I am wondering why windows does a better job at it?? In fact my experience has been mostly positive, apart from the problem already mentioned. I've used several Logitech mice plus my current one (made by Sondstrom). I do have a current issue with sleeping (see parallel thread) but the mouse has never failed to wake up. As to why Windows does it better (assuming it actually does): almost certainly because it has manufacturer-supplied drivers for each model. poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
