Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

Чего там с драйверами под новую эпловскую мышку ? Если я правильно понял, то без них не будет скроллинг работать — не кошерно.

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

а нахрена этот зонд нужен в наших уютных линуксах?

А ты представь, как удобно можно путешествовать между виртуальными мониторами. Во все стороны

под веществами что ли? я за компьютером не путешествую, а работаю

Genius Traveler 915BT — металлический верх, резина по бокам, с полпинка в моём линуксе работает, проблем с поддержкой мыши мне ещё не хватало. Я счастлив.

Год назад брал пару штук. Не сложилось. Обе садились за сутки. Пока логитеками пользуюсь (450, 555, 470).

Все-таки хочется новую ябломышку. Прикалывает отсутствуие кнопок и колеса.

+1, тоже хочется. но, как я понял, оно пока только под маком работает.

тоже интересно, а пока жду — 15 декабря придет, тогда посмотрю

ХЗ. Может мне совсем не повезло. Все равно мало. Грамотные мышки на синезубе живут пару месяцев. Ну по крайней мере, мои логитековские.

В свое время очень возбудился на эту мышку. Конструктив клевый. Только вот, не срослось 🙁

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

Отпишитесь обязательно. Буду ждать.

По свединиям ОБС — на венде работают клики 2 кнопками, а дальше без драйверов непонятно. Мне всякие многопальцевые осьминоговые жесты не особо нужны. Только скроллинг, как колесиком.

Излазал крупные линуксовые форумы — там пока нема отзывов.

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

Возможно, но у меня аккумуляторам — 3 года.

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

мыши у Apple традиционно образец дизайнерского «креатива» и неудобства

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

> В свое время очень возбудился на эту мышку

Быть гомосеком уже не модно? На периферию возбуждаемся?

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

Ну вам виднее, что модно. Я не в курсе.

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

Раз мышь, то это скорее зоофилия.

Apple Magic Mouse + Linux ?

А если её сырыми руками брать, то не будет работать, как и обычный тачпад?

Судя по картинке, её держать неудобно, она настолько тонкая, что ухватиться не за что.

Вообще, Openoffice Mouse (кстати, я так и не понял, фейк ли это), судя по картинке, и удобнее, и функциональнее, чем сабж, за исключением того, что те кнопки, которые находятся сзади от классических «правой» и «левой», будут мешаться (опять же, если судить по картинке). Можно было бы ими пожертвовать, а классические кнопки сделать побольше. Ну и справа тоже джойстик могли бы сделать, чтобы и левшам можно было бы пользоваться, и правши, возможно, применение бы нашли.

Ubuntu Documentation

The Magic Mouse is a wireless mouse with a multi-touch surface that serves as mouse buttons and scroll wheel. It should work with Ubuntu 11.04 out of the box. To configure the mouse

1. Open Bluetooth Preferences
2. Switch on the Magic Mouse
3. Click Set up new Device.
4. The set up wizard will appear, click Forward
5. Your computer will scan for new devices. Once your mouse is found select it and click Forward
6. You will be asked for a pin to pair the mouse. Enter 0000 and then click OK.
7. Click Finish

Ubuntu 10.04 and earlier

For Ubuntu 10.04 and 9.10 there is a driver for this device that is still under development, you can download it from the following address:

README

This code contains a Linux kernel driver for the magic mouse. Please see the INSTALL file for directions on how to use it with your kernel.

This code also contains three standalone programs:

hid-parse reads one or more input files (specified on the command line) that contain hexadecimal-formatted HID report descriptors, and prints out human-readable text forms of the descriptors. It should be considered fairly complete and stable.

mtalk talks to an Apple Magic Mouse (using L2CAP with the HID control and interrupt Protocol and Service Multiplexors [PSMs]) and prints human-readable forms of the messages that it receives. Typically the only command-line parameters you would pass are -r . It should be considered 85% complete.

usb-bt-dump reads a text dump in the format generated by Linux’s usbmon (e.g. /sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon/0u) to parse Bluetooth messages at various layers (HCI, L2CAP, etc) and print annotations with the parsed form. It is woefully incomplete and buggy and will probably not be maintained.

I wrote usb-bt-dump first, followed by mtalk, followed by hid-parse. mtalk is the only one that I expect to modify going forward.

INSTALLING THE MAGICMOUSE DRIVER

The Magic Mouse driver for linux is a module named hid-magicmouse.

Older kernels do not have all the hooks that a driver needs to talk to the Magic Mouse. These are provided in this directory; you must apply them and rebuild the kernel before you can load hid-magicmouse. To apply the patch series, change to your linux-2.6 directory, and run either:

OR (in a Bourne shell, such as /bin/sh):

This series were cherry-picked from the HID and Bluetooth trees onto v2.6.32.8. They should be filtering from the HID and Bluetooth trees into the mainstream kernel between v2.6.33 and v2.6.34. This directory’s hid-magicmouse.c should match the final result of applying the patches in sequence.

You will obviously need to reboot into the new kernel before the module can be loaded, but at that point user-space should see it as a normal input device, including a(n emulated) scroll wheel and middle button.

AppleMagicMouse

The Magic Mouse is a multi-touch mouse produced by Apple Inc.

It can be used as a single-touch or multi-touch device in Ubuntu by pairing it using the Bluetooth utilities in Ubuntu. The following setup instructions only need to be followed once, then Ubuntu will recognize the Magic Mouse without further configuration.

Note: This has been tested in Ubuntu Maverick (10.10) only.

Pairing the Magic Mouse

Once you have inserted batteries in your Magic Mouse, if your system is Bluetooth-capable and its radio is enabled, go to System > Preferences > Bluetooth and click on Setup new device. . Once the Bluetooth setup dialog opens, you should see you mouse listed. Click once on it, then choose «PIN options..». Make sure «0000» is selected under «Fixed PIN»:

Clicking Forward should then complete the pairing, which Ubuntu will remember.

The Magic Mouse can be forced in pairing mode by turning it off and on again (the «on» position will show green color in the switch position).

Once the device has been connected once or moved from another system, you can force pairing again by going to the Bluetooth applet and choosing Apple Wireless Mouse > Connect (if a PIN is asked, you can provide 0000 as the PIN code and press Enter to pair the mouse):

Once these steps have been completed the mouse will remain available in Ubuntu.

Problem: Pairing does not persist between reboots on Maverick (10.10)

If you find that you are not being prompted to «Always grant access» (refer to the Apple Magic Trackpad article) and that the device is not available after a reboot (i.e., you have to reconnect), try adding the pincode for the device (0000) to /var/lib/bluetooth/

/pincodes, like so:

Determine the physical (model-specific) and unique device IDs from the output of lsinput (from the «input-tools» package) as shown below.

/pincodes as the root user (or with sudo): Add this line to the new file, save, and exit:

is a backslash-escaped physical device ID, like D8\:30\:62\:38\:18\:02, and is your device’s unique ID, both from the output of lsinput.

Multitouch status

Finding your input device

Once your mouse has been paired, the hid_magicmouse module should automatically load. To verify this, issue the following command from a terminal:

Here is example output for lsinput (from the «input-tools» package) with a Magic Mouse present (other irrelevant input device removed):

In this case the input device would be /dev/input/event7. The input device number would be 7.

For more information on testing this device for multi-touch support, see Multitouch/Testing.

Installing PyMT and configuring it

To experiment multi-touch capabilities of the Apple Magic Mouse, you can try using PyMT, an open source library for developing multi-touch applications. You will need the device name as ound aboce (in this example, /dev/input/event7). See the Ubuntu PyMT documentation for this.

Apple magic mouse linux

These are my notes for getting Apple’s Magic Mouse 2 with scrolling when connected to work with Linux. While I’m running Ubuntu 19.04 this should work with other distro’s at it only involves udev which is standard with any modern Linux kernel.

DISCLAIMER: While I’ve used Linux off an on over the years, I am by no means an expert. I managed to get the Magic Mouse 2 working for me it might not work for you, and I most likely will not be able to assist you. Finally, while these instructions merely add a configuration file and shell script to your system, I take no responsibility for any damage that may occur on yours. As with anything you find on the internet. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

UPDATE: RicardoEPRodrigues has created a one stop shop that builds and installs the driver, necessary udev rules, and load script with a single install script. While this repo remains here for informational purposes your best bet is to checkout his work and not fuss with all these details.

Apple’s Magic Mouse 1 works with Ubuntu out of the box (I tried with a co-worker’s), Magic Mouse 2 on the other hand does not work completely (no scrolling) as it speaks a different protocol. Thankfully, someone has written a working driver that you can get from here:

From those instructions, you don’t need DKMS nor do you need to run the install.sh script. Instead just build the kernel module:

Note that the repository will then have you unload the existing driver and load the one you just built which will cause your Magic Mouse 2 to work as intended. However, if you disconnect the mouse, reboot, reset bluetooth, etc. the driver will not be reloaded. I thought I would be clever and replace the existing driver on my system with this new one but everytime I reconnected the mouse the scrolling would not work and I would still have to manually reload the driver.

The work-around listed here is definitely a kludge and uses udev to run a script when the Magic Mouse 2 is connected via bluetooth. I would recommend checking out this tutorial about udev rules along with reading the man pages. Note that the tutorial is a bit old in internet years and refers to tools udevinfo , udevtest , udevcontrol , and udevtrigger . These should be replaced with udevadm info , udevadm test , udevadm control , and udevadm trigger respectively. The udevadm command is pretty handy and you should definitely check out the man page for it.

The first thing to do is learn how to identify the Magic Mouse when it is connected. We can look at the output of tail -f

/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log while connecting the Magic Mouse 2 via Bluetooth and look for lines similiar to these:

The important line here is the config/udev: Adding input device Magic Mouse 2 (/dev/input/event21) or more specifically the /dev/input/event21 part. This acutal location may differ on your system. With this piece of information you can lookup the mouse’s physical ID with udevadm info -a -p $(udevadm info -q path -n /dev/input/event21) . This will print out a lot of info but important part will look similiar to:

It’s the ATTRS==»d0:c6:37:e4:5f:fb» (your ID may differ) that will be used in a udev rule to identify the mouse inside a rule in the /etc/udev/rules.d directory. In that directory create a 10-magicmouse.rules file and add the following:

The 10- prefix was picked arbitrarily and could be any number as it is used to determine the lexical ordering of rules in the kernel. The earlier the file is loaded guarantees that the rule will be applied before any others. Ensure that the ATTRS contains the correct ID found from earlier and ensure that the RUN+= portion contains an absolute path to a script on your system. Don’t use a relative path or

as the path is not interpreted by a shell and udev processes the path under root. With that place a shell script can be created at that location and should contain the following:

Replace the /home/user_name/path/to with the location of where you downloaded and built the Magic Mouse 2 driver. You can also adjust the scroll_speed to a value of your liking (somewhere between 0 to 63). If you wish to disable scroll acceleration or middle clicking with 3 fingers then set those values to zero. When this script is run it will unload the default Magic Mouse driver and then load the new one built eariler.

Now we need to reload the udev database with:

With that in place the Magic Mouse 2 will now be properly loaded with scrolling when connected via Bluetooth. Note that isn’t perfect and sometimes the kernel will attempt to reload the driver several times every a few seconds. Also, your mouse may randomly disconnect at times but this was happening to me before applying this fix, may be related to a kernel battery power management issue, and something I am looking into.
