### Solaar - A Programmer for Logitech Receivers

Logitech does not offer any software for connecting or managing their devices in Linux.

While the Linux kernel now does a great job of recognizing and connecting to Logitech receivers, there is no native support in Linux distros for switching your mouse, or your keyboard, to a different Logitech receiver.

Solaar is an open source project that has been around for a long time.  It let's you connect your Logitech mouse or keyboard to any receiver, which is handy if you have a device or receiver go bad.

Note: The latest version of Solaar appears to require root privileges.

Solaar is available in the distro repositories, so it should be easy to install.

On Debian based distros you type:

sudo apt install solaar
