Nice for you. I just gave that a try and removed xorg.conf ... but I run
two monitors on a Nvidia-card so to define their resolutions and
positions I had to generate a config ... and that in turn also contains
input-sections. Removing those only still did not give me working mm-keys.

I have that EmulateWheelButton (for the keyboard) as well ...

Thanks a lot for your helpful infos.

---> No more errors or warnings ... and "evdev" is used ... OK.
I still get no output/event for those upper seven keys ... oh my.
At least I got a cleaned up xorg.conf for now ;-)
It ain't that important although I would like to see them working, it's
a bit hard to understand that issues like this don't just work as well.
Thanks anyway for help, Stefan
