Disable mouse handling
DanViTrinh opened this issue · 6 comments
Is it possible to disable mouse handling, my mouse behaves weirdly with keymapper. I am not using any mouse specific binds. The mouse is too sensitive with keymapper and scrolls up everytime I try to middle click.

are you sure? The mouse handling should not be enabled, when you do not have any Button* and Wheel* keys in your configuration.
I think the mouse is becoming too sensitive, because the DPI information of the virtual device does not match the rate of the movement events it forwards. Likely this cannot be fixed automatically and requires a custom setting. I have not tried it, but here someone was successful.
The middle click/wheel phenomenon is indeed weird.
Could you please post your configuration and the output of sudo keymapperd -v.
Not sure whats going on here:
sudo keymapperd -v
ERROR: Initializing keymapper connection failed
My config:
comments start with # or ; and continue until the end of a line
(ControlLeft AltLeft){Any} >> AltRight{Any}
(ControlRight AltRight){Any} >> MetaLeft{Any}
(AltRight){F} >> AltLeft{F}
(AltRight){B} >> AltLeft{B}
Sorry, likely keymapperd was already running.
So stop it first:
sudo systemctl stop keymapperd
and then run:
sudo keymapperd -v

Thanks, I think I know what's going on. Some buttons of this mouse make it look like a keyboard, and so it is automatically grabbed.
The latest commit hopefully fixes this.
Are you building from source / can you install keymapper-git from the Arch Linux AUR, or should I create a new release so you can try it out?
The issue seems fixed thank you
