This is for a USB mouse. If I try to use it lefthanded, either using
xfce4 mouse setup or with xmodmad -e "pointer = 3 2 1 4 5 6 7 8 9",
xev shows this strange behaviour:
ButtonPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 4053401923, (134,112), root:(557,405),
state 0x0, button 1, same_screen YES
ButtonPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 4053401923, (134,112), root:(557,405),
state 0x100, button 3, same_screen YES
ButtonRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 4053402019, (134,112), root:(557,405),
state 0x500, button 1, same_screen YES
ButtonRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 4053402019, (134,112), root:(557,405),
state 0x400, button 3, same_screen YES
while the normal behaviour is:
ButtonPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 4053337678, (78,103), root:(501,396),
state 0x0, button 1, same_screen YES
ButtonRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 4053337790, (78,103), root:(501,396),
state 0x100, button 1, same_screen YES
That is, with the left-handed config, pressing either button 1 or 3
generates both events. Any clue ?
TIA
