I'm running 5.4 SECURITY with Xorg 6.8.2. I just got a new mouse. It's a
Logitech Wireless Optical Mouse. I'm trying to get it working in Xorg.
I have the following in my xorg.conf file:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Mouse1" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
Option "Xinerama" "on"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "sysmouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/ums1"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "Buttons" "12"
Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "YAxisMapping" "11 12"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Resolution" "800"
Option "Vendor" "Logitech"
EndSection
Cursor movement across the screens is normal. The left and right mouse
buttons work as expected, as does the wheel mouse (as a third button.) So
does the wheel, scrolling vertically. But I can't seem to figure out the
magic combo to get the horizontal scroll to work or the two "side" buttons
to work.
Does anyone have a working example? (I'm not interested in using xmodmap
unless that's the only way to get it working.) Is there a utility that can
tell you which button (number) you pressed so you can test all the buttons
and wheels on a mouse? I tried xev, but it did nothing at all.
