Could you throw in a data CD, any CD, and see if you hear the high pitch squeel of data coming out the audio. If you get it, you'll know about it.
No, I don't hear anything but I don't think it is riser related anyway.

Thank you for checking.
My CD drive is barely working, so I couldn't check it.

I was notified about CD32 LED issues (I assume CD/HDD Led not working when USB override in place correctly - no simple fix), and Bullfrog games left click issue - It is bug which I fixed before, but it got lost during firmware speed optimization and interrupt rewrite.
Kulimario had Superfrog fire issue (fire randomly not working), but I did my best to replicate it but never could.

Due to new job, I have cleared my bench out of CD32 till I settle in new post. If something came out to be fixed it may take few days (till weekday) before I could look at it.

The wireless mouse does glitch a bit. It will occasionally jump randomly to a different position on the screen and it constantly registers phantom left clicks while moving it. I will try with a different mouse when I get a chance.

Could you give me brand and model?
Btw, it is not relevant if it is wiress or wired.

I have tested it on like a dozen different devices, but I know that it may have issues with some, particularly if they have more than 3 buttons. My main support goal was keyboard + mouse combo like Logitech MK220.
I did my best to cover as many mouses as possible, but all I had access to are working fine, but Kulimario had few which didn't work.
I suspect that data arrives as 2 separate reports with separate reportIds, my firmare assume only one, so firmware may read every second read is empty - 0, so it glitches

Logitech M325c doesn't work at all, and the mouse that glitches is the Rapoo 3360 (works best with Risermouse 1). But those are literally the only two I tried so far. I tried a generic USB keyboard and that seems to work without any issues. Apple keyboard doesn't. Will try more when I get a chance. Thanks for all the work you have done so far.

It looks like M325c was Bluetooth mouse and can connect over "unifying" receiver. So I assume that dongle is not detected as mouse, but Bluetooth receiver.

I have ordered Rapoo 3360 and will try to pin down why it glitches. It has all characteristics to work ok.

With Apple keyboard I am not surprised they never follow industry standards.

Those dongles just translate wireless communication into the stream of usb hid packets. So that PC (or your riser) shouldn't require any specific extra driver, because it thinks events come from regular wired mouse.

Beware of some dongles, by using them you are exposing your PC or CD32 to remote hacks. Here is some info about the vulnerability: http://mousejack.com.

So just use wire mouse or build a faraday cage around your home;)

If usb device returned hid descriptor class 2 it would be detected as mouse.It may be hid class other but I use it for gamepads, so descriptor parser wouldn't manage to do it's job.

It seems that generally Logitech mice of this type don’t work: today I tried M185 and M305 models with the same result.

It is something not right, those should work.
