+Kanata on Linux automatically detects and grabs input devices
+when none of the explicit device configurations are in use.
+In case kanata is undesirably grabbing mouse-like devices,
+you can use a configuration item to change detection behaviour.
+
+The configuration is `linux-device-detect-mode` and it has the options:
+
+[cols="1,2"]
+|===
+| `keyboard-only`
+| Grab devices that seem to be a keyboard only.
+
+| `keyboard-mice`
+| Grab devices that seem to be a keyboard only
+and devices that declare **both** keyboard and mouse functionality.
+
+| `any`
+| Grab all keyboard-like and mouse-like devices.
+|===
+
+The default behaviour is:
+
+[cols="1,2"]
+|===
+| When any mouse buttons or mouse scroll events are in `defsrc`:
+| `any`
+
+| Otherwise:
+| `keyboard-mice`
+|===
