RT-MWK01 mini wireless 2.4 GHz Keyboard-mouse Not work

Sun Nov 24, 2013 4:30 am

I have the wireless keyboard listed above and cannot get it to work for the life of me.. I have tried many different methods, everywhere I read mentions plug and play but it will not register a signal. I am using NOOBS with Rasbian latest versions with all updates. I am new to Rpi but not linux in general. Can anyone lend some insight on beginning to troubleshoot this?

I do not have a keyboard but have been accessing the pi with remote desktop via osx.

Thank you in advance,

JN

Plug the device in and issue these two commands

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep usb
lsusb
From lsusb you should see

Code: Select all

Bus 001 Device 007: 03f0:8207 Wireless Optical Mouse
dmesg | grep usb gives more details

Code: Select all

And as you can see in my case the kernel loaded the right device driver for a HID device.
