help for intellimouse explorer back/forward buttons [SOLVED]
i know this sounds stupid, but i've been trying to get functional back/forward mouse buttons for quite some time now...
i followed the wiki, but to no avail. all i could get is back/forward functionality with the scrollwheel (!) ; any other tricks or combination of tricks would eventually fail (no scrolling, no back/forward functionality).
if you have a working configuration for this, i'll be glad to take a look at you config files and any relevant script that can make it work (xorg.conf, imwheel and xmodmap-related stuff).
thx

Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"

Re: help for intellimouse explorer back/forward buttons [SOLVED]
ok, i added the following :
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7"and now it works !
in addition it seems xmodmap is no longer required with this config !
many many thanks for the quick and relevant response scarney !
