Further testing, apparently to enable unique Tilt packets a certain packet has to be sent to initialize the mouse properly, evdev is not doing that, but once I do do that then the mouse sends packets with data of: ``` Scrollwheel Up: 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 Scrollwheel Dn: 00 00 00 FF 00 00 00 00 Tilt Button Left Dn: 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Tilt Button Left Up: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Tilt Button Right Dn: 40 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Tilt Button Right Up: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ``` I included the Scrollwheel to use as comparison, but the tilt is showing as unique button presses, but evdev is not doing anything with them... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926917 Title: Mouse wheel tilt not works Status in xserver-xorg-input-evdev package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu 12.04After updating the xserver-xorg-input-evdev package from 2.6.0-1ubuntu13 to 2.6.99.901-1ubuntu3 the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000 wheel tilt works like scrolling and the xev utility reports that buttons 4 and 5 clicked when I try to tilt the wheel left and right (should report 6 and 7 buttons for the tilt, 4 and 5 for wheel scroll).

I was looking at that other bug report @vk1266 linked, I do not see why they thought it was a kernel issue, as shown by the USB packet dump I submitted above the data is unique between the scrollwheel and the tilt, thus it is hitting evdev with unique information, thus it would have to be an evdev issue and not a kernel issue.

This bug was apparently introduced in the userspace (evdev) in 12.04 rather than in the kernel. On Christopher Penalver's suggestion, I created a new bug report, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1260513, in order to investigate this bug further. As described in post 20 in that bug report, the bug manifests itself in 12.04 but is not present in 11.10 as both 12.04 and 11.10 were tested with the same mainline kernel version.

I have attached a USB Capture file (standard pcapng format, can open in wireshark or so) of the mouse doing: ``` Packets - Physical Action Taken 1-6 - Capture stream setup 7-16 - Pressing left-tilt quickly (it seems to repeat it while being pressed) 17-20 - Pressing left-tilt as quick as I can (it seems to repeat it while being pressed) 21-22 - Mousewheel scrolled up one tick 23-24 - Mousewheel scrolled down one tick ``` This was while using the Razer Naga 2014 mouse. As you can see the data coming from the USB device is significantly different between tilting and the mousewheel usages. The tilt works properly in Windows and is seen as a left/right tilt in various applications such as multiple web browsers. In ubuntu, however, it it sending more mousewheel signals and the Fedora project seems to have fixed it via "Map REL_DIAL to horizontal scrolling (bfdo#73105, rhbz#869065)", though I am unable to confirm due to not having Fedora installed anywhere, may see if they have a livecd version of their system as well when I get time later. ** Attachment added: "USB Packet Capture File" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/926917/+attachment/4403404/+files/Razer-Naga-TiltLeft-TiltRight-ScrollUp-ScrollDown.pcapng -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926917 Title: Mouse wheel tilt not works Status in xserver-xorg-input-evdev package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu 12.04After updating the xserver-xorg-input-evdev package from 2.6.0-1ubuntu13 to 2.6.99.901-1ubuntu3 the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000 wheel tilt works like scrolling and the xev utility reports that buttons 4 and 5 clicked when I try to tilt the wheel left and right (should report 6 and 7 buttons for the tilt, 4 and 5 for wheel scroll).

Also confirm, same problem on 15.04 release, hitting both an old Microsoft mouse as well as a Razer mouse.

Anton Anikin, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-evdev REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

vkulkov, Excellent, glad it worked + I thought the scrolling was reversed too but wasn't sure if it was me as I've never had horizontal scrolling before. To invert and fix the scrolling change the -1 on line 1601 of src/evdec.c to 1 so it should read: SetScrollValuator(device, axnum, SCROLL_TYPE_HORIZONTAL, 1.0, SCROLL_FLAG_NONE); Sorted it for me.

Phil, THANK YOU! I followed your instructions and my annoying problem with the Microsoft Mouse is now gone. I can now use the horizontal scroll function again. I checked the horizontal scroll function in LibreOffice Calc and Chrome browser. It worked in both cases, however I think the horizontal scroll is inverted - that is, when I tilt mouse wheel to the left, the screen scrolls to the right, and conversely, when I tilt mouse wheel to the right, the screen scrolls back to the left. I don't recall if it worked that way in Ubuntu 11.10. But that's a minor issue - at least now I have the ability to scroll horizontally!

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 926917] Re: Mouse wheel tilt not works
Hi, Just added a Microsoft Laser Mouse 5000 to my pc and am now having this issue also...however I believe I may have found the cause (although I've only investigated briefly). Having downloaded the xserver-xorg-input-evdev-udeb source package (http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/xserver-xorg-input-evdev-udeb) the changelog contains mentions of merging a smooth scrolling branch on Wed Nov 9 16:01:48 2011 +1000. evdev.c contains conditionally compiled code depending on whether smooth scrolling should be enabled as to how it handles the scrollwheels. Either: In EvdevProcessRelativeMotionEvent we have: #ifndef HAVE_SMOOTH_SCROLLING case REL_WHEEL: if (value > 0) EvdevQueueButtonClicks(pInfo, wheel_up_button, value); else if (value < 0) EvdevQueueButtonClicks(pInfo, wheel_down_button, -value); break; case REL_DIAL: case REL_HWHEEL: if (value > 0) EvdevQueueButtonClicks(pInfo, wheel_right_button, value); else if (value < 0) EvdevQueueButtonClicks(pInfo, wheel_left_button, -value); break; /* We don't post wheel events as axis motion. */ #endif Or: In EvdevAddRelValuatorClass: #ifdef HAVE_SMOOTH_SCROLLING if (axis == REL_WHEEL) SetScrollValuator(device, axnum, SCROLL_TYPE_VERTICAL, -1.0, SCROLL_FLAG_PREFERRED); else if (axis == REL_DIAL) SetScrollValuator(device, axnum, SCROLL_TYPE_VERTICAL, -1.0, SCROLL_FLAG_NONE); else if (axis == REL_HWHEEL) SetScrollValuator(device, axnum, SCROLL_TYPE_HORIZONTAL, -1.0, SCROLL_FLAG_NONE); #endif Before smooth scrolling, REL_WHEEL was mapped to vertical scrolling and REL_DIAL and REL_HWHEEL were mapped to horizontal scrolling. After smooth scrolling REL_WHEEL and REL_DIAL are mapped to verical scrolling and REL_HWHEEL is mapped to horizontal. Fixed for me by changing the REL_DIAL axis to SCROLL_TYPE_HORIZONTAL. I've attached a patch for the source which solved it for me. Suppose alternatively you could just remove the HAVE_SMOOTH_SCROLLING definition.
