Hi I have just started with Gentoo, and Gnome, and so far it is all very good 8-)
One problem is getting my 5 buttons plus 2 wheels mouse to wheel.
I was using it with SuSE and KDE by setting XF86Config up for 9 buttons and "ZAxisMapping" "8 9 6 7" and then using xmodmap to alter the order of the buttons. Xmodmap -e "pointer=1236745" This was found by trial and error using xev to display actions.
But now I connot find Xmodmap or xev, if I have these where are they, or what do I need to emerge to get them?
$ which xev /usr/X11R6/bin/xev $ which xmodmap /usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap $ qpkg -f /usr/X11R6/bin/xev x11-base/xfree * $ qpkg -f /usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap x11-base/xfree *

I was being dumb.
The problem was I was working as root and root's path does not include X11R6/bin so which missed them, and so did I. Mouse now working fine.
