FC3: Middle mouse button wont work

TheJkWhoSaysNi · 03-11-2005, 06:19 PM

All my other mouse buttons work (including the side buttons) but my middle mouse click (Should be button2) just wont register in xev.

Heres my mouse config:

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"

EndSection

I saw a "chordMiddle" option commented out and decided to try it. Made no difference. What does that do?

It seems whatever mouse i use (even where the 4th and 5th buttons cant be used) button2 will never be recognised.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Code:

Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

    Identifier  "USB Mouse"
    Driver      "mouse"
    Option      "CorePointer"
    Option      "Device"                "/dev/input/mice"
    Option      "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
    Option      "Emulate3Buttons"       "true"
    Option      "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
EndSection

This is the same section from my xorg.conf. As far as I recall, using "6 7" is more for the side buttons and you need to add on a few other programs for that to work.

Yeah, my side buttons work. It's my middle mouse click that doesnt.

Doesnt show up in xev or anything.

The section I posted makes the middle button work. You should add the relevant part into your .conf file.

Which is the "relevant part" ?
