Thanks. That has at least got me forward/back browsing functionality on my thumb buttons. I have sent a communication to logitech requesting that they provide the X.org people wth the information they require to add full support for Logitech products...here's hoping...

Firstly, hello everybody :)

I am a new user of Fedora Core 3 and have been trying to get some help
with configuring my Logitech MX-1000 laser mouse for Xorg.

My searching eventually led me to this document:
http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wfsection/print.php?articleid=46

I've tried to follow it but it's all a bit much for me.  My mouse does
work, it just doesn''t allow me to use all my butttons.  Right now the
scroll wheel is working and 3 mouse buttons.  My thumb buttons are a
mirror of the 3 main buttons and the 'cruise' buttons are mirroring the
scroll wheel functionality; my left right scrollers dont work at all.  I
am trying to get all buttons working correctly.

I have tried to find evdev, which is mentioned in the above document but
there seems to be no reference to it in my installation or anywhere
amongst FC3's packages list.

I also have a Wacom Graphire2 tablet which is correctly installed
(something from linuxwacom project is installed) and working.

I tried copying the MX-1000 section from the above document into my
Xorg.conf but all that resulted in was X hanging on startup.

Any help or links to information that could help would be greatly
appreciated.

Regards,
Tristan Ward

This is how I have mine set up....  Its not the laser one, but its
gotta be close.

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier  "Mouse0"
       Driver      "mouse"
       Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
       Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
       Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
       Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
       Option      "Buttons" "10"
EndSection

You can then use xev to find out which button is witch and then use
xmodmap -e "pointer=1 2 3 7 8 5 6 9 10"

Hope this helps... good luck.



Whoops...  I guess I dont have the right setup...  here we go:
Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier  "Mouse0"
       Driver      "mouse"
       Option      "Buttons" "10"
       Option      "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
       Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
       Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
       Option      "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
EndSection

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 8 9 10"

Is how I got all my mouse buttons to work in FC2...  I havent gotten
the side ones to turn from 2 and 3 to 9 and 10 in fc3 yet.
