Logitech on Linux - so what?
So Logitech is tying to woo the Linux community!!
I would gues that most people have had the same experiences of Logitech as I - the stuff is pure rubbish.
Another of these 'trader' companies that buy up the efforts of real engineering creativity, sack the engineers, export the production to the cheapest, nastiest factories on the planet, package it in sexy boxes, get in spotty marketing morons, and flood the shops with the resultant junk.
I can't think of how many mice, keyboards, remotes, game panels etc that I and my friends have bought from Logitech - only to have them fail within weeks, and then find out that after-sales support is somewhere in Mars, with no phones, email, or staff.
Linux is about excellence - we should discourage Logitech, not applaud their latest marketing spasm.

I think this change on Logitech's website is just a cosmetic change, but I still think it's a good thing as it makes people more aware of products supported under Linux, even though they have been supported all along.

With Logitech products, specifically their gamepads and such, the functionality is hit or miss. You can have an OpenSUSE box that recognizes a Logitech gamepad perfectly, an Ubuntu box that doesn't recognize all the buttons, and a Fedora box that doesn't recognize it at all. It's a real mess, despite the universal HID stuff.
