I recently installed xfce4.6 and i cannot access the mouse settings.. this also happened in xfce4.4 dylix@reaction ~ $ xfce4-mouse-settings (xfce4-mouse-settings:2542): xfce4-mouse-settings-CRITICAL **: XI is not present or too old. i have updated libXi to latest, and rebuilt xfce4-settings.. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open xfce4-mouse-settings 2. 3.
are you running libXi-1.3 (or 9999 from the x11 overlay)?
* x11-libs/libXi Latest version available: 1.2.1 Latest version installed: 1.2.1
Created attachment 184957 [details] xi.c can you please compile attached file (gcc -o xi xi.c -lXi), run it (./xi) and post the output here?
dylix@reaction ~ $ ./xi 0x60b0b0 1 1 3
so something seems to be wrong with your libXi, major_version should be 4 (and it is here with libXi-1.2.1). CCing x11 guys as I have no idea how XGetExtensionVersion works internally
The library is reporting what the server supports, looks like you're old X server. Which version are you using? Cheers
* x11-base/xorg-server Latest version available: 1.3.0.0-r6 Latest version installed: 1.3.0.0-r6

@Christoph, could I bribe you into making Xfce in ~arch depend on xorg-server 1.5.3 or newer? (The KDE Herd did this for 4.2). Cheers
