Hi,
I got a little more further in this thing. After making a new kernel
(2.4.18), I can use the /dev/input/eventX interface. When hexdump'ing
this, I can see that all 4 buttons are recognized right. Unfortunately,
X does not support the event interface.
How can it be that /dev/input/mice only gives me 3 distinct buttons and
/dev/input/event0 gives me all the 4 ones? Moreover, how can I fix this?
Thanks,
Stefan
