Ubuntu 8.10里指点杆中键模拟鼠标滚轮的配置方法

 方法一：
创建文件：/etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-wheel.fdi

<match key="info.product" string="TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint">
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheel" type="string">true</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelButton" type="string">2</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxsisMapping" type="string">4 5</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">true</merge>
</match>

xorg.conf不用修改。

方法二：
先查看/var/log/Xorg.0.log，找到以下内容：

(**) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: always reports core events
(**) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: Device: "/dev/input/event8"
(II) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: Found x and y relative axes
(II) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: Found 3 mouse buttons
(II) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: Configuring as mouse
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" (type: MOUSE)
(**) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200

可见设备已经识别，设备名称是/dev/input/event8，只是模拟鼠标滚轮的默认是第4键。所以修改/etc/X11/xorg.conf如下：

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver    "evdev"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event8"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
       Identifier    "Default Layout"
       Screen       "Default Screen"
       Inputdevice     "Configured Mouse"
EndSection

和以前的方法不同一个是Device，mice不行了；另一个是Driver，现在是evdev。
