>Environment:
moused with a logitech mouseman plus 4-button mouse
>Description:
Logitech is now producing 4-button mice -- some have a goofy
wheel where the middle button is, and a fourth button inconveniently
placed on the left side under ones thumb. I returned that one, and
replaced it with what at first appeared to be a normal 3-button
rodent, but it turned out that it still had the fouth button on the side.
One would expect that the left, middle and right buttons would
correspond to buttons 1, 2 and 3. But no... this is a windoze 95
mouse... so the left, thumb and right buttons are 1, 2 and 3. The
*middle* button is actually the additional fourth button.
This is very inconvenient since one has to squeeze the mouse with
ones thumb to press button two. In addition, it's too easy to
accidently press the button as the mouse is moved.
What drugs were the logitech designers taking when this layout was
conceived?
This patch maps the middle button back to button 2. The thumb button
becomes a fourth button (using bitmask 0x08.) I haven't gotten
X11 running yet -- el cheapo vga card is not supported by xfree --
so I haven't been able to see what effect this fourth button has
or even if X11 can be coaxed into using it. At least I no longer
get a cramp in my hand from squeezing the dumb thumb button.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
This patch assumes my previously submitted bug-fix for simultaneous
button presses is applied.
