Trackman Marble under wayland in Buster
Hello, I just updated to buster and with that comes wayland. I am using a Trackman marble and I do have a custom configuration for it to switch to scoll when I hold button 8 (called "EmulateWheel"). Is there a way to do this under wayland? here is my previous marblemouse.conf for X: Section "InputClass" Identifier "Marble Mouse" MatchProduct "Logitech USB Trackball" MatchIsPointer "on" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Driver "evdev" Option "Buttons""9" Option "ButtonMapping" "1 9 3 4 5 6 7 2 8" Option "EmulateWheel" "true" Option "EmulateWheelButton" "8" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" EndSection # TIA -H -- Henning Follmann | hfollm...@itcfollmann.com
