Xorg config

The proposed xorg config in the "Disable Button Solution" for RAT 3 does not work with my setup. My guess is that because the section is defined as "InputDevice" but I have input device hotplugging enabled (as in xorg "AutoAddDevices" defaults to "true"). The xorg documentation states "If hotplugging is enabled, InputDevice sections using the mouse, kbd and vmmouse driver will be ignored."

Anyway, a quick fix for this situation is to change the section type to "InputClass" and match the appropriate device instead of initializing it (like in the RAT 7/9 solutions)

 Section "InputClass"
   Identifier     "Mouse Remap"
   MatchIsPointer "true"
   MatchUSBID     "06a3:0ccc"
   Driver         "evdev"
   Option         "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
   Option         "Buttons" "7"
   Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
   Option         "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0"
   Option         "Resolution" "3200"
 EndSection

Wayland

It seems configuration files are preference, but today I found that just getting input-remapper-bin proved to be a very easy way to setup my M.M.O.7 mouse. It even allows for profiles. NIronwolf (talk) 13:23, 3 July 2025 (UTC)

I used Udev rules because I tried to convert the Xorg configuration to something working on Wayland. Since it fixed the issue, I mentioned it here, but if you have another / a best way to do it, it's may be worth to mention it ? Surv (talk) 16:02, 3 July 2025 (UTC)

I'm to new to Arch and the wiki to claim it's a "best" way to do it, but for a beginner I found the Input Remapper to be pretty easy to use. It even let's you record what button you're pressing so the evtest isn't really needed. It worked fine for me on a Gnome/Wayland mix. NIronwolf (talk) 00:15, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
