There is software on Linux that works with Logitech mice. Changes buttons, dpi, rgb, etc. Simple, and less bloat than ghub (which keeps getting worse).
Of course, I can't remember the name. I'll try to update this when I hope on my PC
It's Solaar and it absolutely does not work with all Logitech devices and it does not 100% do what the real software can.
Again, the blame is fully on Logitech, but the average person simply isn't going to understand that.
Solaar didn't work with my G602 but there was another app called Input Remapper that was built in to Bazzite and that did. Haven't tried it with my keyboard yet. That said, it doesn't matter who is to blame. The fact is that not all peripherals will work on Linux and if you have ones that don't your SOL unless you have to spend a lot of money to replace them.
