Hello I’m a Linux newbie and I need some help. I’m running fedora on my laptop and I want to connect my Logitech mouse. I got solaar installed but I need to manually install the udev rule. I’m following the Instructions here
So I understand that I need to copy rules.d/42-logitech-unify-permissions.rules from the solaar GitHub and place it in /etc/udev/rules.d the thing I don’t know how to do is get there. I’m not super familiar with the terminal
Edit : adding this for any future people having the same issue. I booted up my wife’s old windows 10 PC, downloaded Logitech unifying software and re-paired the mouse and dongle. Put the dongle back into my Linux PC and the mouse is working. Weirdly though solaar still shows nothing but an empty window. But whatever at least the mouse is working.


I’d check with other USB ports then. If the receiver is not even detected, it’s often a defective USB port.
I tried every USB port, they all detect when the dongle is plugged in but solaar just displays a blank window. I even tried it on my other Linux PC and it had the exact same thing happen . I also had a second dongle so I plugged it in to time rule that the dongle was broken.
