I' ve just installed Ubuntu 12.10 64 bits on my new laptop and my Logitech M510 mouse does not work. It worked perfectly on 11.04 but it stop woth the new version, I've read here that I need to install HID Point, but I'm having trouble with that too.
Here's my output of: lsusb

As you can see it recognizes de unifying receiver, but the mouse does not respond.
When I try to install HID Point I get this:
libpng does not exist
libtiff does not exist
Gathering System information and generating a log
Launching HIDPoint Installer
./hidpointsetup: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I've installed the 32-bit libraries just as it says in the installation instructions but nothing works.
Thank you in advanced!
EDIT
On this thread: Logitech M515 does not work after upgrade to 12.04 They suggest this line "modprobe -r hid_logitech_dj && modprobe hid_logitech_dj" should fix the problem but I get this error when I execute it:
WARNING: Error inserting usbhid (/lib/modules/3.5.0-17-generic/kernel/drivers/hid/usbhid/usbhid.ko): Operation not permitted
FATAL: Error inserting hid_logitech_dj (/lib/modules/3.5.0-17-generic/kernel/drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.ko): Operation not permitted
modprobe
script from this question and it usually gets one of the two working but both together seems to be a game of "connect the receivers until it's working", and sometimes even that doesn't work.
