Here is the problem, I have a 7 buttons mouse (MS intellieye optical) and xmodmap tells me that there is 11 buttons. The first 5 buttons are still usable. In previous versions 6.8.2 I only had to remap buttons 6 7 to 4 and 5 with xmodmap, in order to use properly this mouse. I'm using debian unstable with this package version: xbase-clients 6.9.0.dfsg.1-1 Detailed problem: Here is my xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "False" Option "Buttons" "7" Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" EndSection xmodmap conf: pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 xmodmap now outputs an error. xmodmap: commandline:1: bad number of buttons, must have 11 instead of 7 xmodmap -pp confirms that: There are 11 pointer buttons defined. Physical Button Button Code 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9 9 10 10 11 11 xmodmap says me that I've got 11 buttons on my mouse. Strange. I tried to collect more informations using xev. xev gave me something to play with, buttons 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7 are rightly recognized. As before, 6 and 7 need to be remaped to 4 and 5. But, button 4 (in the previous version) is now recognized as button 10 ! Button 5 is simply not recognized. 4 and 5 are my left and right special buttons. 6 and 7 the wheel. I tried to define Option "Buttons" "11" in xorg.conf and play around with it, but this time xmodmap says me that I've got 16 buttons ! I can notice that the button 5 is this time recognized as button 12. I tried to remap thoses crazy buttons with xmodmap and the help of xev, but without any success. A related bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4212 was fixed, but apparently, not totally. Does anyone experienced the same problem ? Is there any workaround ?
Created attachment 4223 [details] Xorg log (**) Option "Buttons" "7" ... (**) Configured Mouse: Buttons: 11 (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Configured Mouse" (type: MOUSE) ... (II) Configured Mouse: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded
I am having a same issue here on FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE when our xorg has been updated to 6.9.0 recently in a few days ago. My mouse is IntelliMouse Optical USB and PS/2 Compatible (current using PS/2), which it only has 7 buttons but for some reason the xorg keep think that it has 11 buttons. The xorg wouldn't listen to my xorg.conf as I told that it has 7 buttons. The 11 buttons are causing my scroll wheel behaves a bit weird, if I want to scroll up (wheel) and it will ending up as two events at the same by scroll up + right click. My mouse configure looks like this. ==================================== Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Buttons" "7" Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false" EndSection ==================================== A bit workaround for avoid an annoy of scroll up + right click, I had to add ~/. Xmodmap like this below. I did tried to do only 7 numbers, but it wouldn't let me same as what Alexandre has shown above. ==================================== pointer = 1 2 3 8 9 4 5 6 7 10 11 ==================================== But, it is still calling on two events and the scroll up now will behaving as scroll up + side button. It is better than scroll up + right click for now. Here's what the xev looks like if I scroll up and down. scroll up (only one time): ==================================== ButtonPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41478018, (175,3), root:(180,83), state 0x10, button 6, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41478018, (175,3), root:(180,83), state 0x10, button 7, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41478018, (175,3), root:(180,83), state 0x10, button 4, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41478018, (175,3), root:(180,83), state 0x810, button 4, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41478702, (175,3), root:(180,83), state 0x10, button 6, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41478702, (175,3), root:(180,83), state 0x10, button 7, same_screen YES ==================================== scroll down (only one time): ==================================== ButtonRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41564959, (174,3), root:(179,83), state 0x10, button 6, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41564959, (174,3), root:(179,83), state 0x10, button 7, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41564959, (174,3), root:(179,83), state 0x10, button 5, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 41564959, (174,3), root:(179,83), state 0x1010, button 5, same_screen YES ==================================== In the Xorg.0.log has this. ==================================== (**) Option "Protocol" "Auto" (**) Mouse0: Device: "/dev/sysmouse" (**) Mouse0: Protocol: "Auto" (**) Option "CorePointer" (**) Mouse0: Core Pointer (**) Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" (**) Option "Buttons" "7" (**) Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false" (**) Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" (**) Mouse0: ZAxisMapping: buttons 6 and 7 (**) Mouse0: Buttons: 11 [...] (II) Mouse0: SetupAuto: hw.iftype is 4, hw.model is 0 (II) Mouse0: SetupAuto: protocol is SysMouse ==================================== If you need the full Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf too, just let me know.
I have figured it out, if I backout xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/input/mouse/ mouse.c to revision 1.18 and it solved my problem. The revision 1.19 is cauing problem. http://cvs.freedesktop.org/xorg/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/input/mouse/ mouse.c?r1=1.18&r2=1.19&makepatch=1&diff_format=u With the revision 1.18, here are the details with my very orignal xorg.conf that only use 5 buttons. xorg.conf: ==================================== Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false" EndSection ==================================== Xorg.0.log: ==================================== (**) Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" (**) Mouse0: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 (**) Mouse0: Buttons: 5 ==================================== xev, scroll up (only one time): ==================================== ButtonPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x1200001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 441845, (173,2), root:(897,158), state 0x0, button 4, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x1200001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 441845, (173,2), root:(897,158), state 0x800, button 4, same_screen YES ==================================== xev, scroll up (only one time): ==================================== ButtonPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x1200001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 514895, (174,2), root:(793,62), state 0x0, button 5, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x1200001, root 0x107, subw 0x0, time 514895, (174,2), root:(793,62), state 0x1000, button 5, same_screen YES ==================================== I don't FreeBSD supports side buttons (never work) and I never need them, so change to 7 button details: xorg.conf: ==================================== Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Buttons" "7" Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false" EndSection ==================================== Xorg.0.log: ==================================== (**) Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" (**) Mouse0: ZAxisMapping: buttons 6 and 7 (**) Mouse0: Buttons: 7 ==================================== Finally, it respects xorg.conf's buttons option. As for the xev, it looks same as in my first comment #2.
Looks like bugzilla doesn't like a long URL, so here's a short one. http://tinyurl.com/comzf
I can verify that the last workaround by Jeremy Messenger fixed my mouse as well. I'm also on FreeBSD 6-STABLE.
Jeremy's xorg-server-6.9.0_3 patch fixes the middle-click duplication problem with Logitech Optical Cordless Mouse MX1000 also in FreeBSD 6-STABLE (May 18th, 2006). Optimally, this would have been fixed in the original source for the next release. Otherwise, this patch will have to be distributed as a FreeBSD patch.
Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys. Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
