Input Device Coordinate Mapping - How to set the mapping of an input device to a display through X Generally, much of it was written for pre- InputHotplug X, so may or may not still work in Intrepid. The following documentation was provided by various people in the past. It can also be done via configuring a matching InputClass section on nf. To make this set on a per-user basis, I can plug that line into my ~/.xstartup or other init file. Or I can turn the middle-mouse button into a left-mouse button by setting it to 1: I can turn the middle mouse button off by setting it to 0: They represent the left, middle, and right mouse buttons. Really, only the first three numbers have meaning for me. My mouse has the Logitech logo printed on it, so I gather I need the last entry. Fortunately it can be disabled.įirst, you need to know the id of the mouse, like this: This is a great feature, but you may find it irritating. Scrollwheel mice support a middle-button click event when pressing the scrollwheel. Option "TransformationMatrix" "0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 0 1"Įxample: Disabling middle-mouse button paste on a scrollwheel mouse the Coordinate Transformation Matrix in an nf type file (e.g., /etc/X11//nf), set the "TransformationMatrix" option ( NOT "CoordinateTransformationMatrix" or "Coordinate Transformation Matrix"!!!!) in an InputDevice or InputClass section for example: Input Configuration with InputClass sections $ xinput set-int-prop 8 "Device Enabled" 8 0 Synaptics touchpads are particularly configurable like this, but other devices have some more general properties.
#Xinput test setting drivers#
Xinput can also be used to alter the button mappings on mice and adjust the acceleration and feedback settings.ĭifferent input drivers may also expose arbitrary properties for applications to set. Individual devices can be queried for more details by using the numerical id or the name: ThinkPad USB Keyboard with TrackPoint id=7 To view a listing of the input devices X sees, run: The xinput command line tool can be used for some on-the-fly configuration adjustments.

However, if you do need to do adjust things, read on. With this functionality, it's likely that you won't need to do any configuration at all to make your devices work, assuming they're recognized and set up by the kernel.
