Summary: mouse side buttons do not work in wine when mapped to gtk/qt standard Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: aagaande@gmail.com
I recently realized my "back" button in firefox wasn't working, looked into it and it has been remapped to mouse button 8 (back) and 9 (forward).
I found https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355477 on the subject, quoting: "I'm attaching a simple patch that maps X mouse buttons 8-9 to the back/forward commands. The consensus amongst GTK+ and Qt seems to be that buttons 6-7 are for horizontal scrolling."
However, in WINE (specifically using world of warcraft) if I can't bind mouse4/mouse5 (what wow calls my side buttons) if I use this standard.
With this: xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9" (standard) Firefox back/forward works perfectly, but the side mouse buttons do not register in wow at all.
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 6 7" I can bind my side buttons in wow, they register as "button4/button5" in wow, in xev they register as 6 7. However my back button in gtk applications stops working.
