IIRC the G7 is wireless, is it not? If so, some things may be a little different, but I would try a more generic configuration. Try using /dev/input/mice, protocol "auto", then play around with different drivers (start with "mouse".) I have a G5 and it works "out of the box" with this configuration: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Buttons" "8" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Good luck! -- Neil Isaac isaac.neil@gmail.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
