Just curious.. yes. it appears (but i'm not 100% sure) that our mouse code uses "1 3 2" button encoding (left middle right), and usb hid seems to use "1 2 3" button encoding. it seems like generic mouse button mapping code (similar to moused(8)) would be nice to have. > Also - for those who don't want to patch their systems, this works fine > in X: > > xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 2 4 5 6 7" yes, but this does not work on console (like you said it only works in X). thanks, max
