Issue created Sep 19, 2013 by Administrator@rootContributor

Some receivers expected by Solaar GUI are not listed in udev rules file

Created by: MestreLion

Besides my M525, I also have an old V220 wireless mouse. It comes with a USB receiver that shows in lsusb as:

ID 046d:c51b Logitech, Inc. V220 Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks

This is considered as a Logitech Receiver by Solaar (as NANO_RECEIVER_C51B in lib/logitech_receiver/base_usb.py), but this ID is not present in the udev rules file.

As a consequence, every time Solaar starts I get this annoying alert box:

Found a Logitech Receiver (/dev/hidraw3), but did not have permission to open it. If you've just installed Solaar, try removing the receiver and plugging it back in.

If this receptor is supported by Solaar, it should be present in the udev rules file. If it is not supported, then the "permissions error" alert should not be displayed for this receiver (since removing/plugging it back won't help at all).
