Titel: Configuring M$ Wireless Laser Mouse

Anyone got this M$ Wireless Laser Mouse 5000? I would like to see how I can configure this mouse for kanotix to work like in Windows. It has 4-way scrolling so when you move the wheel sideways you can scroll left and right. Clicking the wheel should make it act as a 3rd button. Also it has 2 side buttons that can be set to work as back/forward buttons.

Not sure how to set this up in xorg.conf. Any ideas?

Thanks

I use the Logitech MX700 and I cannot get it (2 buttons on the side) to work.

You might want to look at the
MX700 Mouse Configuration and mess around with it.

Just remember to back up your xorg.conf !!!!!

Try this. It should be all you need on Kanotix.

Code:

Section "InputDevice"

        Identifier      "EV Mouse"

        Driver          "evdev"

        # Work out the following eventX via "cat /proc/bus/input/devices"

        Option          "Device" "/dev/input/event2"

EndSection
