Hello: I have a Cordless PS/2 Logitech 3-button wheel mouse and I can’t seem to get X to work when I scroll with the mouse wheel. My current configuration in the /etc/X11/X86Config-4 is as follows: Section "InputDevice"
Identifier
"Configured Mouse"
Driver
"mouse"
Option
"CorePointer"
Option
"Device"
"/dev/psaux"
Option
"Protocol"
"PS/2"
Option
"Emulate3Buttons"
"true"
Option
"ZAxisMapping"
"4 5" EndSection I was reading on the following page on the user reference
file: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-install.en.html#s3.3.1 Where it provides some examples as to how to configure X to
recognize the mouse properly but the problem is that when I follow the ms3
approach stated in the document and make the changes to the “X86Config-4”
file and then try to use the mouse wheel as a button (just by pushing it down)
I get the following error: “www.gpm.conf could
not be found. Please check the name and try again.” I also get that same error
when I try and do the same thing with my original configuration stated above. I then also tried to use the “raw protocol approach”
mentioned in the above link which consists of making changes to the “gpm.conf” & “X86Config-4”
files. However, I don’t have a “gpm.conf”
file in my /etc folder so I cant use that approach
either. Does anyone have any clues as to how I can get the mouse wheel working?
And should I have a gpm.conf file? Thanx! |
