Description of the change
Use "hidraw" in stead of "hiddev" for Logitech device 046d:c714 - diNovo Edge Keyboard.
Tested on amd64 with provided Logitech bluetooth dongle (comes with keyboard).
The dongle is unable to act as a generic bluetooth dongle,
but a working keyboard is most important.
Note: this may be a firmware problem.
See https:/
Tested with patch:
keyboard working in BIOS: yes
keyboard working in GRUB: yes
keyboard working in recovery console: yes
keyboard working in graphical login: yes
keyboard working in ubuntu: yes
In all testable cases, the touchpad seems to also work.
Untested:
connecting to a different bluetooth dongle with the keyboard.
Not sure if this is supposed to work.
I had all kinds of trouble trying to do this a while back,
so recommend this simple fix be applied for now.
Open questions:
not sure if other devices also need to be also special-cased to get them working,
asked https:/
but have recieved no response yet,
might be just this device which still has a problem.
The patch is straight-forward and obvious,
so if other devices need the same treatment,
modifying it is easy.
