Description hmarton 2012-07-23 18:42:34 UTC

I've configured pointer devices as follows:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "evdev pointer catchall"
        MatchIsPointer "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
	Option "EmulateWheel" "True"
	Option "EmulateWheelButton" "3"
	Option "YAxisMapping" "4 5"
	Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
        Driver "evdev"
EndSection

Mouse wheel emulation for the Y (vertical) axis doesn't work since the upgrade to version 2.7.0. The mouse pointer stops moving while I'm holding the right button as it should, but mouse button press events for Y axis scrolling (4 and 5) are not generated, only for X axis (6 and 7).

I'm running ArchLinux and I'm using an unpatched (custom built) version of xf86-input-evdev.
