Hello I’m a Linux newbie and I need some help. I’m running fedora on my laptop and I want to connect my Logitech mouse. I got solaar installed but I need to manually install the udev rule. I’m following the Instructions here

So I understand that I need to copy rules.d/42-logitech-unify-permissions.rules from the solaar GitHub and place it in /etc/udev/rules.d the thing I don’t know how to do is get there. I’m not super familiar with the terminal

    Tried those things, no luck. And no other Logitech things around to connect too. I’m starting to think it might just be a hardware issue. It’s a mouse and keyboard I haven’t used for a while.

      I’d try:

      • running solaar from the terminals so you get the output log
      • checking what you have in /etc/udev/rules.d

        I honestly don’t know much about terminal, how could I go about doing that? I’m pretty sure this is exactly my problem. I had stumbled on this Reddit thread when looking for a solution. But someone here pointed out that the link lsd_ninja provided was for MAC so I thought I must’ve been on the wrong track. I know I have to copy the file from the GitHub. I just don’t know how to get to the location where it goes.
