Try running xev (merging it if necessary) from a terminal window, and |
| 13 |
compare the event output when you roll the USB mouse wheel against that |
| 14 |
when you roll the bluetooth mouse wheel. You'll probably get different |
| 15 |
button events, and will need to map them to scroll wheel events |
| 16 |
accordingly, in xorg.conf. This can get a bit complex and isn't amd64 |
| 17 |
specific, so if you have problems figuring it all out, I'd suggest posting |
| 18 |
to the desktop list. The X experts, both Gentoo users and devs, can be |
| 19 |
found there and will likely be more familiar with the specifics. |
