[Bug 230919] New: Mouse buttons not interchangeable at installation
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230919 Summary: Mouse buttons not interchangeable at installation Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: felix.rommel@web.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com When I installed openSUSE 10.2 I had plugged in my EzTec PS2 to USB converter with an external PS2 mouse and PS2 keyboard. I use the mouse with the left hand and I was surprised that YaST asks me to interchange the mouse buttons which is a really good feature. The problem is that it does not interchange my buttons but leaves my USB/PS2 external mouse still in right hand mode.

I can send you a newer log but I'm not sure if this works for you. But the problem is not only at installation but also in KDE when trying to switch to left handed mouse. Please let me know if I shall send you a newer YaST log or if you need another log file for KDE left handed mouse problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230919 ------- Comment #4 from mhorvath@novell.com 2007-01-10 02:58 MST ------- Could you please attach yast logs from the old and the new laptop?

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230919 ------- Comment #5 from mhorvath@novell.com 2007-01-24 03:31 MST ------- Please attach your yast logs from the old laptop, where the bug appears. It doesn't matter if the logs include system installation, the interesting thing is the act of trying to interchange the mouse buttons. Please attach also output of the 'hwinfo', 'dmesg' (after plugging-in the mouse) and 'lsmod'. All requested files from both the old and new laptop to let us see the difference. Without the requested information we cannot target the source of the bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

It's a problem with Xorg!?

This is about the only important difference I can find in the configurations. Could you please exchange the two lines InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Mouse[3]" "SendCoreEvents" by InputDevice "Mouse[3]" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "SendCoreEvents" on both laptops, and check whether both (!) behave differently now? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230919 ------- Comment #16 from felix.rommel@web.de 2007-02-05 14:43 MST ------- Aspire: 1. CorePointer -> switchable SendCoreEvents -> NOT switchable It doesn't matter if external USB mouse or touchpad is CorePointer or SendCoreEvents. 2. SendCoreEvents -> Touchpad not switchable SendCoreEvents -> External USB mouse not switchable and if you click a few times on left mouse button you get the same effect as on clicking the right mouse button (for example you get context menu for both buttons -> mouse behaves crazy) * Thinkpad: 1. CorePointer -> Trackpoint Switchable SendCoreEvents -> Not switchable device not in xorg.conf -> not switchable It doesn't matter if Trackpad or Touchpad is CorePointer. Corepointer is always switchable but not SendCoreEvents or the device which is not in xorg.conf. I think there is a problem when you add 3 devices in your xorg.conf - X did not start. Maybe it's a limitation of X server!? What works: CorePointer Trackpad -> Switchable Touchpad not in xorg.conf -> Switchable USB/PS2 mouse not in xorg.conf -> Switchable 2. SendCoreEvents -> Trackpad goes behaves crazy (see *) SendCoreEvents -> Touchpad not switchable SendCoreEvents -> External USB mouse behaves crazy (see *) Result: Even if my external PS2/USB mouse is damaged, switching to left handed mouse for Trackpad AND Touchpad on Thinkpad does NOT work. Trackpad and Touchpad are integrated my notebook - maybe it's not common for Thinkpads but Z61m has both. I think it's a Xorg problem - under Ubuntu switching to left handed mode doesn't work, too. Totally crazy that one configuration works for my Thinkpad (Trackpad in xorg.conf, Touchpad and external USB/PS2 mouse not in xorg.conf) and not for Aspire, when only inserting Touchpad in xorg.conf and leaving other input device out of xorg.conf. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
