XF86Config : Option "Resolution" "800"
Hi!
I have a question here. Does setting the resolution for the mouse in XF86Config make a difference? I have a logitech MX300, suppose to be a 800dpi mouse, therefore it explains the Option part. Anyway, if there is anyway I can tweak my Slackware 9.1 to be correspond to the mouse resolution would be great. Secondly, how can I configure the extra button function to whatever function I like? (Scroll must work also) Thanks. |
hi,
never tried that mouse resolution thing. but normally slackware asks you if the mouse has got a wheel when finishing the installation. at least this is what slack 8.1 is doing, should be the same with 9.1. greetz, bavarian ps the brave must win--and the brave is red! |
these are the lines you need in XF86Config for your wheel to scroll. for other functions of the wheel (like to open an app) you would have to get a third party program for that as far as i know.
here is what i have and it works everytime for my logitech wheel mouse on ps/2 Section "InputDevice" # Identifier and driver Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" # On platforms where PnP mouse detection is supported the following # protocol setting can be used when using a newer PnP mouse: # Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" # The mouse device. The device is normally set to /dev/mouse, # which is usually a symbolic link to the real device. Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" the bold lines are usually what need to be changed after a standard install. as for the dpi settings...never changed anything like that and havent seen any need to at least for my mouse |
