Doosl presenter buttons not working

dooslpresenter · 2015-12-03 02:26:20

I have a big presentation coming up and I got this Doosl presenter but none of its buttons are recognized by xev.

dmesg seem to think it is a keyboard and earlier thread suggests that this should be enough for it to work.

Any suggestions? I'm using xmonad as a window manager and impressive for my presentation.

Here is the output of dmesg:

If this is of any help, it works perfectly on plugging into my arch desktop which runs 4.1.6-1-ARCH compared to my laptop (on which it doesn't work) which runs 4.2.5-1-ARCH.
Here is the output of dmesg from the desktop

Diff the loaded modules between the two machines after plugging it in.

Hi, did you ever find the reason why it wasn't working. I also have a Knorvay wireless pointer and am encountering the same symptoms as yours. Same lines in dmesg upon plugging it in, but the buttons don't have any effects
