Hi,
I have an Intellimouse Optical USB and PS/2 compatible and eventually
got it working like so:
In /etc/X121/xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
EndSection
Note that my z-axis mapping is different from Alexander Dalloz and I'm
not doing three-button emulation, though I'm not sure that matters.
I seem to have the same pointer mapping:
$ xmodmap -pp
There are 7 pointer buttons defined.
Physical Button
Button Code
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 6
5 7
6 4
7 5
I should mention that it took me awhile to find a procedure that worked.
Googling eventually brought me to:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Mouse_Nav_Buttons
which goes into more detail. Worth a look.
Good Luck!
Jeff
