Ahhhh. I haven't yet seen that tool. That explains a lot =o) Also I gave you wrong info. It is the xmodmap command that reverses the mouse buttons, and not xset.
The mouse config tool probably uses the xset and xmodmap commands to do (temporary?) changes to the mouse configuration. You can have these changes applied automatically by adding command(s) to .xinitrc, as I mentioned above. Use whatever text editor you like to do this. Just keep in mind that it is a "hidden" file not displayed by default in the gui file selectors, and that the command must be above the "case $DESKTOP" part of the file or else it will not work.
An example command:
Code Sample
xmodmap -e "pointer = 3 2 1"
The above is for a 3-button mouse with no wheel. For a wheel, this should work:
Code Sample
xmodmap -e "pointer = 3 2 1 4 5"
Actually it is both xset and xmodmap, xset for speed and xmodmap for button switch. The suggestion is a good one to improve the Lua/Fltk script I got from a user in Brazil. I will look to make both settings persistent in v3.3Does this mean that I must enter an farther command with "xset" under the file ".xinitrc", if necessary which and where?
GerdThat depends on what you want. If you need to adjust the mouse acceleration, then yes you'll want to add an xset line (right above or below the xmodmap line is a good place).
