just installed buster. if it changes anything, I kept my /home partition from the previous stretch installation, while I overwrote the system partitions with the installer (weird issues with packages dependencies).
anything seems fine and most applications picked up their previous configuration.
then, as I have a logitech trackball, I wanted to configure the key mappings.
a) I saved this as /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-trackball.conf and /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-trackball.conf, which used to work before
but X does not seem to pick the configuration up. is this the correct place for x server configuration snipplets?
Code: Select all
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Marble Mouse"
MatchProduct "Trackball"
MatchIsPointer "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "8"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "EmulateWheelInertia" "10"
EndSection
~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
but these logs contain only data from startx run I did from the command line in text mode, nothing from the current session. any hints to why I don't have logs?
apparently the X server being run is Xwayland, is this expected?
