Well, since a couple of years for now I use moused enabled as well as an appropriate X11 mouse driver configuration - untouched so far. On the console - where moused() will be mostly effective - I do not utilize sophistcation in z-axis mapping, but this comes into play when using a simple desktop. I do not know whether X11 does have a simple mapping of left- or righthand mouse usage, I guess you'll have to map this for yourself "per pedes" - x11-wm/windowmaker is also kept very simple at this point. I guess when left/righthand would have been changed or is about to change, also someone has to take care for the mouse buttons left/right. They are unchanged, so far. I will check also for the ZAxisMapping in the InputClass section of X11, maybe I can map the propper way more easisly there. But that doesn't anser the question what changed in the new device infrastructure. I'd like to understand - to conceive a solution. Kind regards, Oliver -- A FreeBSD user
