Hi, bought wireless kb and mouse (MS Comfort Edition). Keyboard works
fine, but there's something wrong with the mouse. Middle clicks don't
register always, and its' very annoying, because you really need that to
open links in tabs/paste text.



I bought one this weekend but it seems to not work at all. It might be my
old kernel (I was using 2.4 at the time). Are you able to "see" all the
keys? Try xev on the special keys on the keyboard and let me know what
works. While on windows, I found that if you type too fast, some keys won't
register, and no there wren't any typos (typo put in on purpose).


Well, I cant see all the keys, but I don't really need those My favourites etc keys. Play/stop/ff/rew keys work, and some of the keys in the left (home/calculator..)



I've already changed whole set (kb+mouse+stuff), but problem continues.

I also tried very briefly mouse with Windows 2000, but it didnt work any
better (I didnt install the software from CD). So I dont really know is
it about hardware..



Did I read that correctly, you also have the same problems on Windows? Then
its a hardware issue.




Yeah, I just didn't install Intellitype software, and I understand there could be some problems with wheel without it..

Is it possible that KDE is the problem? Or Firefox (most problems are
with FF).


If its a hardware issue KDE can't do anything about it.


Can it be that it doesnt work because of cell phone, crt monitor etc?


I highly doubt a crt monitor would cause problems, it could be that the cell
phone and wireless components operate on similar frequencies, have you
tried moving the cell phone (surely you could have tested this yourself)


Yeah, tried moving cell phone/power off, doesnt help.




I'm using slackware 10.2, 2.6.16.9 kernel.

xorg.conf

Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"



Does the mouse wheel right/left trigger a back/forward on konqueror? xev
might give you results for these buttons as well, I'm just curious. (The
keyboard/mouse that I bought was left with its new owner)



The mouse has only three buttons.. but it has tilt wheel.


Hmm, I try to find out what's wrong, but I'm kind of like Emulate3Buttons, so I can always press left+right buttons if the wheel doesn't worl..
