However, I do not think that this is the correct driver. I can move the mouse around, but only VERY slowly (takes 6-7 swipes over the pad just to go from one edge of the screen to the other), and only the left/right buttons work. Tapping does NOT work. I also installed and ran gsynaptics. I am not sure how or if this program will change my X config or not, but changing any settings there did not have any effect on the mouse at all. (It also showed that tapping was enabled.) > Just to verify, could you please locate evtest utility and check > whether your up and down buttons generate BTN_FORWARD and BTN_BACK > events? Where can I find evtest? It is not in my distribution's software repository (Fedora 8). I have tried to use xev instead (I do not know if this is sufficient), and it reports the following when I press up/down buttons: ButtonPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001, root 0x13b, subw 0x0, time 2305203062, (49,88), root:(600,409), state 0x0, button 4, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001, root 0x13b, subw 0x0, time 2305203062, (49,88), root:(600,409), state 0x800, button 4, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001, root 0x13b, subw 0x0, time 2305205151, (49,88), root:(600,409), state 0x0, button 5, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001, root 0x13b, subw 0x0, time 2305205151, (49,88), root:(600,409), state 0x1000, button 5, same_screen YES Still, I wonder if it may be better for me to use the old driver (ImPS/2 -- is this the Intellimouse?) since this used to work perfectly for me earlier. Maybe I can just remove the GlidePoint driver from my kernel to force the older driver? Kind regards, Vegard Nossum
