I have a Logitech Bluetooth mouse which I'm fairly sure has a hardware problem. The left button frequently issues two click events in rapid succession when pressed only once. Is there a way to tell X that two such events in under some threshold should count as one? I've Googled and other people have had similar problems (not specifically with this mouse) but there are no clear answers. I'd rather not have to drop $50 or so on a new BT mouse.
such if is switch, is because they have move from a 'micro switch corp' type switch with built in de-bounce to a cheap button top, low profile switch, which are prone to bouncing after many times of actuation. i have found that, with any mouse, giving a quick, sharp tap on button will check them. if bounce is still there, open housing check for bad solder joints. if none, then you need to replace switch. if you are good with a soldering iron, it is not difficult to re flow solder, or replace it. if you want software de-bouncing, that used to be under /etc/, but i do not recall file. grep mouse /etc/* will reveal it if is in your version. such has been renamed and in a diff location. i do not recall just where. again, as to version diffs, mouse settings are in sl6, kde; system settings being that my chemo-memory is what it is, i ran this; ]$ locate mouse|grep -v dev|grep -v home|grep -v share|grep -v lib|grep -v src|more /etc/gconf/schemas/desktop_gnome_peripherals_mouse.schemas /etc/gconf/schemas/mousetweaks.schemas /etc/setuptool.d/99mouseconfig /usr/bin/gnome-mouse-properties /usr/bin/hal-probe-vmmouse /usr/bin/kapplymousetheme /usr/bin/kmousetool /usr/bin/mousetweaks /usr/bin/vmmouse_detect ]$ you can see the possibilities. try it on your system. or hope someone comes up with exact file. much luck. -- peace out. in a world with out fences, who needs gates. sl6.3 linux tc.hago. g . -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
