I just tried it. Couple of issues: 1. The "speed" of the pointer on the screen is way faster now. I corrected that with some XF86Config options. 2. The pad has 4 buttons; left and right work as before. In between, there are a small up and down button. Now the up button acts as the middle button (button 3?) -- ie I can paste with it. The down button still does nothing. I tried playing with the moused parameters and the XF86Config ZAxisMapping settings, to no avail. 3. Earlier, tapping on the touchpad would emulate a left click. It no longer does anything (not sure whether that's good or bad). What I'd like is to emulate 3 buttons with simultaneous left-right clicking, as before; have the "up" button behave like scrolling a mousewheel up; and have the "down" button behave like scrolling a mousewheel down. I thought the Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" in XF86Config, and moused -m 4=3 -m 5=4 would do it. But no luck (though the above moused options do stop the up button from acting like a middle button). Any ideas, anyone? Thanks Rahul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
