It took several hours to set that up.

Hmm odd it should not take that long, especially with the flatpack. My install picked up the unified receiver near instant, it was only setting up the keys that took a few minutes for the MX Master 3s.

Does it all work now?

Yes, he had some macros to set up and is totally new to Linux, however he ended up temporarly back on Windows as he has an Nvidia card (5000 series) and their Linux drivers have not caught up yet with the new tech. Once they do he is switching back.
