Logitech G5 gaming mouse goed configureren onder openSUSE 11.1 / 11.2

De Logitech G5 gaming muis goed configureren onder openSUSE 11.1, op internet zijn veel voorbeelden te vinden, maar de goede zat er niet tussen.
In mijn geval was het een kwestie van ~/.Xmodmap aan te maken met de volgende inhoud:

pointer = 1 6 3 4 5 9 8 2 7

Voor openSUSE 11.2 kwam ik erachter dat 8 en 9 omgewisseld moeten worden, omdat anders de tilt-buttons (scrollwheel links/rechts) verkeerd om werkten in Firefox. Ook heb ik 6 (thumbbutton) en 2 (middelste button) omgewisseld:

pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 6 7

Daarna het volgende commando uitvoeren:

xmodmap .Xmodmap

En even uitloggen en inloggen. Nu werkt de scrollwheel-tilt functie ook (scroll-wheel naar links of rechts om bv in Firefox een pagina terug of verder te gaan). Erg handig.

De /etc/X11/xorg.conf heb ik niet aan hoeven te passen, maar voor de volledigheid ziet die er zo uit (op een Acer Extensa 5630Z laptop, onder openSUSE 11.1. Onder openSUSE 11.2 is xorg.conf.install nagenoeg leeg):

Hee waarom heb jij zo'n mooie gaming muis? Doe je weer een keer mee met Call Of Duty 4,5 of binnenkort 6? :-)
