  The logitech is guaranteed to be a problem, but Sonic will be OK if DLA
isn't manually disabled (I should update cygcheck to test that for us) and you
can often get away with ZA too, so I would only get rid of logitech first,
then see if it can be made to work.

  This does depend, it would be worth checking whether or not there are any
files in /etc/postinstall/*.sh or whether they have all been marked .done.
