Ubuntu Using Extra Buttons On Microsoft Optical Trackball Imwheel Forward Back

ubuntu using extra Ubuntu Using Extra Buttons On Microsoft Optical Trackball Imwheel Forward Back

If you want to use the two extra buttons on your Microsoft Optical Trackball then this is how you do it. To configure it on a Debian system you need to use the following settings in your configuration files for Xorg 6.9 and imwheel 1.0.0pre12-5 installed.

In your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file you need these in your mouse section.
Code:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7 10 11"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
EndSection

With the important parts to look to change/add being the protocol, buttons and zaxismapping.

To configure imwheel to work you need these in the /etc/X11/imwheel/startup.conf file to have it started with the correct parameters.

Code:

# Configuration file for setting imwheel startup parameters.

# Set this to "1" to make imwheel start along with your X session.
IMWHEEL_START=1

# Specify the command line parameters to pass to imwheel.
# Simply uncomment the bottom line, and if necessary replace
# the default options with your own. A button spec of 0089
# will grab the thumb buttons of most mice. 000089 should work
# for mice with a scroll wheel with two axes.
IMWHEEL_PARAMS="-fb "89""

Restart the X server and it should now work with the extra buttons to have imwheel use the extra buttons you need to create an ~/.imwheelrc file . And in the .imwheelrc you can use this for it to apply to every application that will use the forward/back buttons.

Code:

".*"
None, Up, Alt_L|Left
None, Down, Alt_L|Right

"(null)"
None, Up, Alt_L|Left
None, Down, Alt_L|Right
