Package: kcminput
Version: 2.0 (using KDE 2.2.1 )
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:compiled sources
Compiler: gcc version 2.95.2 2220 (Debian GNU/Linux)
OS:Linux (i686) release 2.4.3
OS/Compiler notes:
currently there is only support for 3 mouse buttons and the mouse-wheel.
But many mice have more than 3 mouse buttons (e.g. ms intellimouse
explorer) so it would be appropriate to let the user configure the
additional buttons to do some window operations or to emulate keyboard
shortcuts.
I hadn't found a possibility to do this using the x-toolkit. There is
only support for maximum 5 buttons and these buttons are used by a 3
button mouse with mouse wheel.

The intellimouse (explorer, optical, ...) mice have 5 buttons, with two being
on the side that default to being used for back/forward in IE, which many
people (myself included) become accustomed to. Mozilla and Phoenix support
this, it's the only thing preventing me from using Konq most of the time. :)

This is different than bug# 48062, since 48062 has to do with modifier
buttons (whatever
those are supposed to be...), and this is just about recognizing a button as a
normal key.

I'm wondering that this wish is very old (over three years?) and the
status is still new.
Really it would be a great help if it would be possible to define how
many buttons and or wheel a mouse has. And assigning some features to
this buttons.
I tried around with the mapkey-pointer feature of X but with no/less
success. Assigning a doubleclick-event to a pointer seems to be
impossible.
Using new Logitech MX1000 Laser with 10 buttons :-) Yes, even the mouse
wheel can be pressed down, left and right :-)

Just bought an MX1000 some weeks ago. Indeed, the only way to make the
extra buttons (including thumb buttons!) work is to use imwheel (or
equivalent software) and remap them to some keyboard events.
That's nice, working great and full of possibilities, but far from easy
for new users. They would expect those buttons to work out of the box,
IMHO.
This seems to be a Qt limitation, and if the documentation is up to date
on this subject, it still is in Qt 4 :
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.0/qt.html#MouseButton-enum (I haven't looked
at the source).
Perhaps you, KDE folks, will be able to push TrollTech in the right
direction ?

I am in the same boat concerning my new mx1000. It would be great to be
able to configure this without needing to use a 3rd party app to
configure the extra buttons.
I would suggest putting configuration in the kcm mouse module, however--
users will not expect mouse configuration to be in a keyboard/keymap
list. :)
If it does turn out to be a limitation of qt, then it would be great to
have a control module, or portion thereof, that will configure the
imwheel (or other app) to remap the buttons. Until a solution is found,
I guess I'll configure imwheel by hand.
Thanks!
Zak.
