Hi all! I have this weird behavior of XF86Setup. I try to change the mouse settings to "4 buttons" and "MouseManPlusPS/2" instead of "3 buttons" and "PS/2". I go into the graphical mode, and change all the necessary settings. Then I click Done, and so on, and it exits normally saying that /etc/X11/XF86Config was written and the old one was renamed into XF86Setup.bak.
Ok, I go into shell, and see by the time-stamp that the file indeed has been updated. But inside, the "Pointer" sectino I invariablly see Section "Pointer" Protocol "PS/2" Device "/dev/mouse" BaudRate 1200 Emulate3Timeout 50 Resolution 200 EndSection After I edit it by hand to look like this: Section "Pointer" Protocol "MouseManPlusPS/2" Device "/dev/mouse" Buttons 4 Resolution 200 EndSection everything works. But if I rerun XF86Setup, and confirm that I want to use my existing file as a default, then change some parameters (not even in the Mouse section; BTW the mouse info shows correctly in there at this point), then save the changes, my XF86Config's "pointer" sections reverts to the wrong settings. I tried deleting the file altogether thinking that maybe it was corrupt, then new file is created, and the same behavior is observed. Any ideas, anyone? I'm getting sick of editing it by hand every time (I'm experimenting with keyboard settings currently, and run XF86Setup often).
