I'm trying to use the 3D Connexion CadMouse Pro (not wireless) under Ubuntu 22.04.
I'm aware they don't support Linux, but I hope it's just an HID mouse after all...
After connecting it to the USB port, my machine found it and no errors are fired:

Still the mouse does not move at all, neither the buttons do anything.
I stumbled across this website that claims to be able to make it working. I downloaded, built and ran both the daemon and the GUI successfully. Apparently it finds the mouse but again it does not work:
Did anybody find a way to use this mouse in Ubuntu?
