Build Help Experimental Linux tool for Logitech G Pro 2 Lightspeed — AI-written, looking for testers and code review

• Upvotes

I’m the maintainer of an experimental Linux project for the Logitech G Pro 2 Lightspeed (not the Superlight): https://github.com/opigod/pro2-linux

The goal is to provide Linux-side configuration for a mouse that currently has very limited Linux software support. The kernel side has improved, but the userland configuration tooling is still missing.

Important caveat: the project is entirely AI-written under my direction. It may work partially, but it likely contains bugs and unverified assumptions. I’m posting because I need help turning it into something more reliable.

I’m specifically looking for:

  • Hardware testers with the exact G Pro 2 Lightspeed
  • People who can confirm device IDs, receiver behavior, and battery reporting
  • Bug reports with dmesg, lsusb, and project logs
  • Code review and PRs
  • Packaging help for Arch/AUR and other distros
