Post by: richardZA on October 01, 2007, 08:13:53 PM

Does anyone know how to get a standard 3 button gyro mouse to work like the fiire remote? At the moment i still need the keyboard to push F6 F7 and F8...

Thanks in advance

That's odd, my gyro mouse has 5 buttons and a scroll wheel. The 3 extra buttons perform the same functions as F6-F8, right out of the box.

Hi Zaerc

I have to buy one, but so far I've seen only 3 button gyro mouse and this stopped me so far from purchasing.

Can you tell me which brand/model of gyro mouse do you have in your LMCE environment?

TIA
Marco

Sure, it's in the wiki: http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Gyration_Go_2.4_air_mouse

I have the same issue using a three button gyration mouse (predecesssor to the Go2.4 version).

It must be possible to remap the buttons by modifying either the source code or event handler any pointers (excuse the pun) would be useful

Thanks
