[PATCH] HID: hid-kensington: add alternative button mapping

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The current mapping of the proprietary Kensington Slimblade buttons
is as follows:
 +---+---+
 | 2 | 8 |
 +---X---+
 | 1 | 3 |
 +---+---+

This modification adds an alternative button mapping for users,
who prefer to use middle mouse button emulation (buttons 1+3) in
order to get one extra button at the top right. The alternative
button mapping is:
 +---+---+
 | 9 | 8 |
 +---X---+
 | 1 | 3 |
 +---+---+

The desired behavior should ideally be achievable in userland,
but in reality only recent evdev Xorg driver since v2.10.5 is
able to handle middle mouse button remapping together with middle
button emulation.
