[Bluez-users] No scroll wheel or extra buttons for MS Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000

[Bluez-users] No scroll wheel or extra buttons for MS Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000

[Russell Harrison]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3097 bytes --]

I am able to get my new Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000
working with the scroll wheel and extra buttons.  It does work with the
basic three buttons.  I haven't even attempted to get the extra presentation
features working as that is probably a lost cause.

$ rpm -q bluez-libs
bluez-libs-3.7-1

$ uname -a
Linux rusharri-lnx2 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 #1 SMP Fri Nov 10 12:45:28 EST 2006
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I'm not sure if this is related to the kernel bug described in the
bluez-users list or if its going to require new drivers for this device
entirely.  Hopefully its just misconfiguration on my part.  Does anyone know
if the patch made its way into the current FC6 kernel?

Any help would be much appreciated, Just let me know what information I can
get you.

Thanks in advance!

Here's what I suspect you'd probably ask for right off the bat.

you have to use at least the -mh patch or wait until we merged that back
into the upstream kernel. This might happen with 2.6.20 or 2.6.21
depending how well testing goes.

Thanks Marcel!  Not the answer I wanted to hear, but at least I know what I
need to do to get it working.  Keep up the good work guys!  I guess I better
start helping out with that testing. ;-)
