Guest Matrixboy Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 I'm left handed, and I just ordered the MX610 from Logitech (a left handed wireless mouse <3) They changed the button on the inner side (right) to be what normal right-handed users know as "left click." Even though I am left handed, I like having the buttons the right-handed way, I know there isa xbfdev or something command in Linux to reconfigure mouses, but would anyone mind walking me through it? (i don't remember the actual command -_-) BTW: Mandriva rules! Plug and play, NO configuration at all, even with two other mices already plugged in!

Scythe Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 I found this page (for RedHat, but it's probably applicable to some extent). It tells you how to switch a right-handed mouse to left-handed through a command, so maybe that'll work in reverse for your left-handed mouse.

Thanks, that will help me a lot! I'm going to do it as soon as I get home (school :\) Thanks for the help everyone, I owe you a lot, my mother would have killed me, I'm lucky she got me a mouse with the padding for left-hands ^^.^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) This could help you too: http://yves.gablin.club.fr/gablin.php?page=pc_linux The xmodmap command should work if placed into the .xprofile file in your home-directory.
