[gentoo-user] alps touchpad problem

[scwang]

I use synaptics driver for my alps touchpad.
Everything else works finely except one thing:
my up scroll key scolls down and down up.

How to solve it?

You want the section on ZAxisMappping.  You basically want to flip the
wheel so that up is down and down is up.

In my InputDevice section for my mouse I have:

Option  "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

I could reverse them like so:

Option  "ZAxisMapping" "5 4"

Or I could send *negative* values like so:

Option  "ZAxisMapping" "N4 N5"

Or I could send *negative* *reverse* values like so:

Option  "ZAxisMapping" "N5 N4"


I don't have and alps touchpad, so I am not sure which one will work
for you.  Try out each and restart X to see what works.

ZAxisMapping (man 4x mouse).

AZixMapping doesn't work.
I think it's for mouse driver of x, not for synaptics drivers!

Hmm, your other choice is xmodmap.  Something like:

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 5 4" might work.
