 Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2005 9:36 pm Post subject: MX700 wheel [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I recently screwed my system up to the point where I had to restart from scratch. Now I can't get the scroll wheel on my mouse to work. Using xev scrolling the mouse doesn't even register an event. I'm using the exact same kernel config as I as using before (saved the .config file) so the problem shouldn't be there. I've tried a number of different xorg.conf sections posted throughout here https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-178733-highlight-mx700.html with no luck. I haven't tried the evdev configs yet b/c a) I don't think I have the support compiled into the kernel and b) I know it was working w/o it before. Here's my xorg.conf:
| Code: |
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
Option "buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMaping" "4 5"
|
I'm pretty sure this is the same setup I had last time around, although ZAxisMapping might have been "6 7". I'm pretty sure that once I get the wheel events to register in xev I can get things mapped correctly.
ideas?
edit: Oh yeah, the cc-up button only registers the same as the thumb back and the cc-down button doesn't register anything. I assume this is part of the same problem

| The ZAxisMapping is "6 7", according to the Gentoo Wiki. Be careful when deing the Xmodmap. |

| I originally tried it at "6 7". The one posted was just my latest unsuccesful attempt. |

| Save yourself the trouble and switch to evdev. It works great and lets you use all 10 buttons the MX700 has. (Each scroll direction counts as a button) |

| yup, all 10 are reported in xev. I haven't played with the logitech-applet yet, though, so the cruise-control buttons still report double events. |
