the previous/next buttons of my dell mouse do not work on ubuntu 17.10. Other buttons are working fine.
According to documentation, I tried to perform button remapping using xinput list
and then xinput test #device-number
Here is the ouput of xinput list
:
ben@precision ~ $ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ xwayland-pointer:14 id=6 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ xwayland-relative-pointer:14 id=7 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ xwayland-keyboard:14 id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
I tried to run xinput test 2
,xinput test 4
, etc... and then click mouse buttons to identify my device number but this has no effect, nothing printed to the output.
How can I identify my mouse device and then perform lateral buttons mapping?
