Description Holger Sickenberg 2011-02-02 09:59:24 UTC

I installed M6 with a connected 3 button mouse on my laptop. But the included track point just have 2 buttons. With openSUSE 11.3 the third button was emulated automatically when I clicked 1st and 2nd butten at the same time. With openSUSE 11.4 M6 this behavior is not working anymore.

Please tell me if you need log files.

Hmm. Apparently your touchpad isn't detected at all, whereas touchscreen is and being driven by wacom driver. Might be a kernel problem. So what's the output of 'hwinfo --mouse'?

Indeed no touchpad has been detected. Reassigning to kernel component.

But it's the same on 11.3 where everything works fine. Please see attached hwinfo-mouse-113.txt for 11.3

Comment 8 Holger Sickenberg 2011-02-02 16:28:39 UTC

By the way - it's not a touchpad, it's a track point and 2 buttons.

Comment 9 Stefan Dirsch 2011-02-02 17:55:56 UTC

Ok, but still something similar to "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" should have been detected. I suggest to remove the mouse and rerun "hwinfo --mouse".

Comment 11 Stefan Dirsch 2011-02-02 20:20:05 UTC

Please add the following to /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/11-mouse.conf:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier      "PS/2 Generic Mouse"
        MatchProduct    "PS/2 Generic Mouse"
        MatchIsPointer  "on"
        Driver  "evdev"
        Option  "EmulateWheel"  "on"
        Option  "EmulateWheelButton"    "2"
        Option  "YAxisMapping"    "4 5"
        Option  "XAxisMapping"    "6 7"
        Option  "Emulate3Buttons"    "on"
        Option  "EmulateWheelTimeout"    "200"
EndSection

Does this fix the issue?

Comment 12 Holger Sickenberg 2011-02-03 08:14:43 UTC

Yes, this fixes the issue.

Comment 13 Stefan Dirsch 2011-02-03 08:35:00 UTC

Fixed with SR #59854.

Output of "hwinfo --mouse"

Your fix doesn't solve problem for me. However, if I add following to /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/11-mouse.conf, all is going right:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "whatever"
    MatchIsPointer "on"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection

Output of "hwinfo --mouse" is in attachment.

Comment 15 Stefan Dirsch 2011-02-14 15:22:34 UTC

Please open a seperate bugreport.

Comment 16 Robert Gartler 2011-05-24 19:57:48 UTC

Same thing here. Yaroslavs solution solved my problem too. (Using the trackball of a Dell Latitude D830)
