Mouse Configuration - Where to configure special mouse button to perform some compiz actions?

Question

I've updated to 11.04 and I now need to reconfigure a lot of things. One of them is the mouse "special "buttons.

Before I clicked on the red button that my mouse brings, and I switched desktops.

I tried to do that again, but on the Compiz configuration we can see this useless information like:

Button1

Button2

Button3

Button4

and so on...

I have no clue about what number is associated with my red button of this M$ Optical Comfort 3000 mouse.

Where can we configure our mouse buttons/clicks ?

Thanks

Answer 1

The only program I know of that I use to figure this stuff out is called xev. Run it from the command line (Terminal):

$ xev

Then you will get a pop-up box.

In that "Event tester" box, click your buttons, you will see button down and button up events show up in the terminal window. Each event will have a button number associated. Keep clicking them till you determine which one is which.

Pretty handy utility.
