From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have an older g502 and while the software is windows specific (maybe there is a mac version too?), the actual settings are saved on the firmware. So connecting it once to windows and configuring it should suffice. Just an idea since you already spent the money…
This is the what I did. My wife still uses windows so I configured the mouse on her computer, saved the configuration, and have it working smoothly on my PC.
While it was easy to set it up this way, I really don't like the idea of needing windows to configure my mouse though. I really wish logitech would start offering official Linux support.
While not official support, I had luck with my logitech g600, using Piper/libratbag on Linux to configure my mouse's onboard memory.
