>Description:
If you map any button to button #7 on the command line of moused, you get the correct events on the console (using the -fd flags for moused). But within X the events of button #7 are simply ignored as you can check with xev.
This is with a Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical on XFree86-4.2.0_1,1 but I saw the same behaviour along the whole XFree86-4.x line. I never checked this for XFree86-3.x
The conventional approach i.e. configuring only X (and no additional -m flags for moused) to map the ZAxis and changing buttons 6/7 with 4/5 with xmodmap works however. All 7 buttons are received then by xev.
Also not using moused at all, but pointing X directly to the correct device works for all seven buttons.
>How-To-Repeat:
root # moused -fd -p /dev/psm0 -t auto -m 7=3
moused: proto params: f8 80 00 00 8 00 ff
moused: port: /dev/psm0 interface: ps/2 type: sysmouse model: IntelliMouse Explorer
[snip] Pressing mouse button #3 here, which is now mapped to #7
moused: received char 0x87
moused: received char 0x0
moused: received char 0x0
moused: received char 0x0
moused: received char 0x0
moused: received char 0x0
moused: received char 0x0
moused: received char 0x7f
moused: assembled full packet (len 8) 87,0,0,0,0,0,0,7f
moused: tv: 1032678418 792660
moused: flags:00000004 buttons:00000000 obuttons:00000004
moused: activity : buttons 0x00000000 dx 0 dy 0 dz 0
moused: mstate[6]->count:1
moused: button 7 count 0
But xev sees only buttons up to #6. #7 is silently ignored.
