I have the same problem (Ubuntu 18.04.2, 4.18.0-16-generic)
You mean the Magic Trackpad 2, not the Magic Mouse 2, right? You can just checkout the version below and you dont need the quirks file, everything should work: https://github.com/robotrovsky/Linux-Magic-Trackpad-2-Driver/tree/63187c13bb198609689460bbd1a99a4f622b5d83
@robotrovsky Magic Mouse 2, not Magic Trackpad 2. Support this drive magic mouse 2?
@romanAbrahamovic no this driver doesn't support the Magic Mouse 2. Only Magic Mouse I and Magic Trackpad I + II
I can confirm that the driver works with Magic Mouse 2, but it needs to be manualy loaded - see https://forum.manjaro.org/t/apple-magic-mouse-2-not-working-kernel-4-20/72236/5
@romanAbrahamovic how much work would supporting Magic Mouse 2 take? (Enabling scrolling, that is)
I recon there would be many Linux users happy to buy you a coffee if you got this working...
@stubbulon5 Me for example!
Scroll not working on 5.0.23 ubuntu 18.04 .
@robotrovsky , is seems Magic Trackpad 2 scrolling works but not Magic Mouse 2 scrolling. How feasible would a fix for this be?
Much respect for the work you've done so far.
I am using this fork patched to work with magic mouse 2: https://github.com/rohitpid/Linux-Magic-Trackpad-2-Driver. The (virtual) wheel using single finger swipe works ok using libinput driver option. It would be nice to have it merged with the main version -- I guess I could do a merge request, should it be acceptable.

That would be wonderful. I've converted a Mac mini to an Intel Nuc running Ubuntu, but I've kept the mini's keyboard and mouse. I was happily surprised that they are working at the login screen, but then quickly disappointed that scrolling with the Magic Mouse 2 wasn't working. I was honestly surprised that it didn't "just work".
Sorry for posting on an old thread. I got the magic mouse working even with the scroll feature, but scrolling is quite slow, just to scroll this thread it takes me 7 swipes. Do you know how I can increase the scroll speed?
Thank you.
@leftdevel could you please describe how you got the scrolling to work on the magic mouse 2?
Also will there be any updates to support this for ubuntu 20.04 - scrolling doesn't seem to work on this version (kernel v5.4.0-42-generic
Thanks in advance!
@imanm93 follow the instructions from rohitpid branch's readme. Make/compile and then run:
sudo rmmod hid-magicmouse sudo insmod ./hid-magicmouse.ko middle_click_3finger=1
That worked form in 20.04, enjoy the scrolling! :D
@maomorales for me your decision works, but every time, when mouse is disconnected with bluetooth or computer sleeps for a while, scrolling doesn't work again and I need every time run these commands
sudo rmmod hid-magicmouse
sudo insmod ./hid-magicmouse.ko middle_click_3finger=1
Does anybody have the same execution? How to fix it?
@akozyreva I ended up changing the Mouse. I couldn't solve it and the time I was spending there was not a smart use of my time 😄
I guess you can create some automated script that is automatically called when some of those events happen. But not the nicest solution.
I finish instalation by instructions in readme file.
I still cannot scroll on my MM2. Is there a something which I missing?
If I used kernel v.4.20 or 4.15 still had a same problem with scroll. Thank you for advice.
