Finally had time to throw at this. Worked fine on Kubuntu 12.10 except for the pkg-config package which was required for ./configure to complete. MInor issue, was very obvious to discern, fix and move on.
Scott - this essentially works fine on 12.10 but rather than use xserver-xorg-input-evdev 2.7.0, which is likely valid for 12.04, I searched for the latest in quantal and found it to be 2.7.3. So just replace the 2.7.0 with 2.7.3 and you'll be fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926917 Title: Mouse wheel tilt not works Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Ubuntu 12.04After updating the xserver-xorg-input-evdev package from 2.6.0-1ubuntu13 to 2.6.99.901-1ubuntu3 the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000 wheel tilt works like scrolling and the xev utility reports that buttons 4 and 5 clicked when I try to tilt the wheel left and right (should report 6 and 7 buttons for the tilt, 4 and 5 for wheel scroll).
