[Solved] MarbleMouse Configuration
« on: October 14, 2012, 11:55:41 AM »
Anyone know hot to configure PCLOS to use the Logitech MarbleMouse?  I know the general procedure as I have done this with openSUSE.  I added the same modifications I did in openSUSE and it worked fine with the left little button enabling scrolling.  I added the following to 10-evdev.conf file:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier  "Marble Mouse"
        MatchProduct "Logitech USB Trackball"
        MatchIsPointer "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "evdev"
#       Physical button #s:     A b D - - - - B C    b = A & D simultaneously;   - = no button
        Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
#       Option "ButtonMapping" "1 8 3 4 5 6 7 2 2"   #  For right-hand placement
#       Option "ButtonMapping" "3 8 1 4 5 6 7 2 2"   #  For left-hand placement
#
#       EmulateWheel refers to emulating a mouse wheel using Marble Mouse trackball.
        Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
#       Option "EmulateWheelButton" "8"              # Factory default; use "9" for left-side placement.
        Option "EmulateWheelButton" "8"
#       Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
#       Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"                  # Disable this for vertical-only scrolling.
#       Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
#       Emulate3Buttons refers to the act of pressing buttons A and D
#       simultaneously to emulate a middle-click or wheel click.
        Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
#       Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"              # Factory default.
EndSection

and to the 50-vmmouse.conf file:

Section "InputClass"
   Identifier   "Marble Mouse"
   MatchVendor   "Logitech, Inc."
   MatchProduct "Logitech USB Trackball"
   MatchIsPointer   "on"
   Driver   "evdev"
   Option   "EmulateWheel"   "on"
   Option   "ButtonMapping"   "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
   Option   "EmulateWheelButton"   "8"
   Option   "ZAxisMapping"   "4 5"
   Option   "XAxisMapping"   "6 7"
   Option   "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
        Option  "EmulateWheelTimeout"    "200"
EndSection
