Hello,

I'd like to get the tilt wheel (horizontal scrolling) to work on my "Logitech Click! Plus". xev doesn't react when I tilt the wheel (or press the buttons on the side of the mouse). Here's my xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Click! Plus"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "YAxisMapping" "6 7"
EndSection

What am I missing?

AFAIK the tilt wheel is currently unsupported...
I've gotten to the level where the kernel reads the signal using evdev but havn't seen any way to get x.org to read the key presses.
There is a patch but i can't find anyone who actually has a tilt wheel working as it's supposed to do =/
