I'm not very experienced in Linux, so some crucial information may be
missing from this report. I will answer further questions if needed.
I have a Logitech MX510 mouse. I also use Fedora 7 and have updated XEmacs
to the latest version using "yum update xemacs". Version is 21.5 (beta28).
There seems to be something really wrong with the thumb buttons, which are
buttons 8 and 9 by default. Using this init:
(global-set-key 'button8 'copy-primary-selection)
(global-set-key 'button9 'yank-clipboard-selection)
XEmacs just says "button8 undefined" and "button9 undefined".
Nevertheless
if I map those buttons to button6 and 7 using .Xmodmap and change the init
to
(global-set-key 'button6 'copy-primary-selection)
(global-set-key 'button7 'yank-clipboard-selection)
, it works. In GNU Emacs I don't have to map anything, buttons 8 and 9
work just fine. But it gets even stranger: If I in XEmacs interactivly
bind button8 using ALT-x global-set-key, press the button which it
recognizes as button8 and type global-set-key, it works. But only until I
do the same with button9. Then BOTH buttons stop working.
I have 32bit Fedora 7 on 32bit CPU.
