[SOLVED] MX performance and xbindkeys

hi to all
i make a clean install Arch 86_64 and i cant make xbindkeys work properly again
i forgot to keep the old .xbindkeysrc and with the new i cant make it work
i read from wiki the mx 1000 xbindkeys which i was using first for the setting but now not lucky

my .xbindkeysrc

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Alt_L]\[Left]""
m:0x0 + b:8
"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Alt_L]\[Right]""
m:0x0 + b:9
"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Up]""
m:0x0 + b:11

Re: [SOLVED] MX performance and xbindkeys

This is not much but it works for me:

# Back
"xte 'key XF86Back'"
b:8

# Forward
"xte 'key XF86Forward'"
b:9

Obviously it requires xte, which I think is in the package 'xautomation' from AUR.

Re: [SOLVED] MX performance and xbindkeys

Hm that's weird... I also have this one:

# Present windows
"xte 'keydown Control_L' 'key F10' 'keyup Control_L'"
  b:10

for the kwin plugin 'present windows' and it works fine. I don't think you need anything in xorg.conf - I don't even have that file. In fact, I've done nothing but plug in the mouse, install xbindkeys and xte, and enter that config. Maybe try modifying your xorg.conf, removing the mouse part?

Re: [SOLVED] MX performance and xbindkeys

martinoff,

I have x86_64, kernel26 2.6.38.6-2, xbindkeys 1.8.5-1 and a Logitech G700

.xbindkeysrc:

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -text "\[Alt_L]\[Left]""
m:0x0 + b:6 

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -text "\[Alt_L]\[Right]""
m:0x0 + b:7

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -text "\[Control_L]\[KP_Add]""
m:0x0 + b:9

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -text "\[Control_L]\[KP_Subtract]""
m:0x0 + b:8

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Home]""
m:0x0 + b:10 

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[End]""
m:0x0 + b:11 

"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Next]""
m:0x0 + b:14

in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "evdev pointer catchall"
        MatchIsPointer "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "evdev"
EndSection

and buttons work as expected.

Must be some misconfiguration or incompatibility on your side.

PS: xvkbd 3.2-1

Re: [SOLVED] MX performance and xbindkeys

Sorry to reply to this Solved issue but I got the same problem.
Got myself a new MX Performance and I can't make the button 10 and button 13 work with anything.

I tried used xev to identify the buttons:
ButtonPress event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
    root 0x2b4, subw 0x0, time 86173628, (170,17), root:(174,130),
    state 0x10, button 10, same_screen YES

ButtonRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
    root 0x2b4, subw 0x0, time 86173876, (170,17), root:(174,130),
    state 0x10, button 10, same_screen YES

ButtonPress event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
    root 0x2b4, subw 0x0, time 86176241, (170,17), root:(174,130),
    state 0x10, button 13, same_screen YES

ButtonRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
    root 0x2b4, subw 0x0, time 86176417, (170,17), root:(174,130),
    state 0x10, button 13, same_screen YES

Then installed xbindkeys and produced a default config to my home directory. I modified the config with entries for the extra buttons:
"xte 'keydown Super_L' 'keyup Super_L'"
  b:10

"xte 'key F5'
  b:13

didn't work.
I made sure the xbindkeys were running and when I tried the xte commands from the terminal it worked fine.

Any ideas or alternatives?

I know it's a little late for a response but I ran into the same issue today and here's what I did. xte just didn't want to play nice with those extra buttons so I installed xdotool instead.

# pacman -S xdotool

Then I used the xdotool command in place of xte. The relevant part of my .xbindkeysrc now reads:

#Back
"xte 'keydown Alt_L' 'key Left' 'keyup Alt_L'"
   b:8

#Forward
"xte 'keydown Alt_L' 'key Right' 'keyup Alt_L'"
   b:9

# Axe Menu
"xdotool key Super_R"
   b:13

# Gnome Menu
"xdotool key Super_L"
   release + b:10

Hope that helps!

That worked like a charm! Thanks!!
That need to be wiki-ed, I am sure I will be searching for that again...
