Hi all, first off I must confess that this is a crosspost. I posted a similar question to the Debian list, but it's not getting very far and I know that there are some smart folks here who could probably help. I have a nice new mouse with two extra multimedia buttons. When I try to get the scancodes with "xev", "xbindkeys -k", "showkey", or "showkey -s" then I see no output. There are some other functional keys on this mouse which also show no output with those tools, such as the side scroll feature, so I suspect that there must be _some_ way to get the codes. Other than Xev, Xbindkeys, and Showkey, what tools can I use? I specifically bought this mouse because of the location of the two extra keys, as I have a manual disability and cannot use the special keys of regular mice. This is the rodent: ✈ganymede:~$ grep -i mouse /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 15.197] (==) RADEON(0): Silken mouse enabled [ 15.289] (II) Microsoft Natural® Ergonomic Keyboard 4000: Found 1 mouse buttons [ 15.289] (II) Microsoft Natural® Ergonomic Keyboard 4000: Configuring as mouse [ 15.292] (II) config/udev: Adding input device MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse (/dev/input/event2) [ 15.292] (**) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Applying InputClass "evdev pointer catchall" [ 15.292] (**) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [ 15.292] (**) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: always reports core events [ 15.292] (**) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Device: "/dev/input/event2" [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Found 9 mouse buttons [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Found scroll wheel(s) [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Found relative axes [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Found x and y relative axes [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Found absolute axes [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Found keys [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Configuring as mouse [ 15.300] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: Configuring as keyboard [ 15.300] (**) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 [ 15.300] (**) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200 [ 15.300] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse" (type: KEYBOARD) [ 15.301] (II) MLK OX-1100 wireless Laser Mouse: initialized for relative axes.

I've tried to google a picture of the mouse, I see no info on Teac mice even on the Teac website. The buttons are "zoom" buttons that I suppose are activated by a Windows driver on the OS that the package states that it "supports". Thanks in advance for any advice on how to continue! -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
