Mouse Logitech M185 middle click not working

[mihaicris]

Hi,

I have a wireless mouse, Logitech M185, middle-click does not work.
I launched xev and checked, every cursor movement, button click or wheel up/down produces output except wheel-click which doesn't.
That means the wheel-click "paste" is not working... at all, not in terminal, not in text editors, regardless of the Desktop environment.

xorg.conf section (if it matters):

Code: Select all

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Mouse0"
    Driver         "mouse"
    Option         "Protocol" "auto"
    Option         "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
    Option         "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
    Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Some ordinary wired mice (either USB or PS2) have no problems.
Is there anything I could try?

As root, install xinput from base:

Code: Select all

yum install xorg-x11-server-utils

Then list your input devices:

Code: Select all

xinput list

Does it list your mouse? If it does, query its capabilities with

Code: Select all

xinput list "Your mouse name here"

Substitute "Your mouse name here" with your actual mouse name, e.g. "Logitech M185 Wireless Mouse". Also, no xorg.conf section should be becessary for your mouse to work as advertised (my "Logitech G400s Optical Gaming Mouse" didn't need any configuration at all).

No... my mouse is not listed:

In the meantime I found another wireles Microsoft mouse that works.
I tried using Solaar but it requires "logitech-djreceiver driver enabled and loaded".
Could not find that driver anywhere...
