I have a usb wireless mouse for specific purposes, but it refuses to start on devuan. I wondered, if someone could give me a bunch of ways to do so.
I have yet to get it working. Its possible that debian did something stupid that makes this complicated... idk.
I have no problem on Hyperbola with this issue, its just annoying as can be on devuan though.
What packages typically does it require to get a usb mouse working such as M650 L LEFT?
Do i need to modprobe something? I am using openrc, so if you have sysvinit ideas, adapt them please.

well, desktop environment can make a pretty big difference. Have you checked to see if the USB mouse works at the greeter? (If its a mouse-enabled greeter like slick or sddm?) What DE are you using?

I have to click a button to get mine working/switched on.

Is the mouse's batterie charged?
Can't remember haveing mouse problems the past decade or so. Would you mind sharing the manufacturer?

Logitech, the battery is charged, it works on Hyperbola as I said above, but not devuan.
Although, lsusb isn't available either... which is weird.

Unplug the mouse, run "tail -f /var/log/syslog > capture.log", then plug in the mouse and then type ctrl-C to stop the tail. Then drop in the log into a code box here.

Without the quotes, it said permission denied for some reason. No idea why.

I own a small wireless mouse by Trust, item no. 20322-09. It runs on 2 AAA cells. The Bluetooth? dongle is stored inside the mouse when its not used. This mouse has an on/off switch.
I am mainly using it on my laptop. It worked out of the box with Chimaera and Daedalus, in both cases LightDM/Cinnamon as DE. No special action required. I can start the laptop, and plug in the mouse when I am logged in. It works.
