End of june, I set up 2 axis wheel mouse configuration, and it worked for 2 weeks. After some system updates, it stopped working. Initial report was made in forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=4152236#4152236 Facts are: - I have a Logitech RX1000 - configured as explained on http://imaginux.com/roadtolinux/dotclear/index.php?2007/04/24/196-logitech-lx3 - it worked for about 2 weeks - stoped working without changing anything in Xorg conf, but seems to be after xorg re-emerging - when I cat /dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_USB_Optical_Mouse-event-mouse it produces habitual garbage on scree, in the 4 possible ways to push the wheeh (I mean: mouse works fine, and kernel driver can /still/ handle both axes). - xev do report events on vertical scrolling, but not on horizontal for this mouse - all always worked and still works fine with my home made PS2 touchpad (home made after disassembling a laptop) (always worked, and still works => xorg still hadles horizontal events ). My personnal conclusion is that ... driver for USB mouse broke by the mean time. *** *** *** I esync every night, and emerge -DaNuv world twice a week. I cant give breaking day because I dont use this feature daily. I could give actual xorg.log, but I am not sure it would be revealant since I did not keep one from the time it used to work. I ll try if this BTS allows me to atatch such big files. *** config *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "fr" EndSection # /dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_HID_compliant_keyboard-event-kbd Section "InputDevice" Identifier "USB Mouse" Driver "evdev" Option "Device" "/dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_USB_Optical_Mouse-event-mouse" Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "HWHEELRelativeAxisButtons" "7 6" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "PS2 Mouse" Driver "synaptics" ### Synaptics Touchpad and kernel 2_6_0.htm # the following values are the default ones; I changed them for my own use.

In fact, syntax of xorg.conf changed; here is the minimal conf section to get it working: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "evdev" Option "CorePointer" Option "Name" "Logitech USB Optical Mouse" Option "HWHEELRelativeAxisButtons" "7 6" EndSection Here is my personnal setting that also works very well: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "USB Mouse" Driver "evdev" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" #optional Option "Name" "Logitech USB Optical Mouse" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" #optional Option "HWHEELRelativeAxisButtons" "7 6" EndSection Closing INVALID. Fix has been given on forum exactly while I was typing this report. Took a few minutes to check it.
