Or write a kernel input device driver. In fact I probable have a mouse
driver for you. What kind of mouse do you have? Then set your X config to
have the following:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "ImPS/2"
Device "/dev/input/mice"
ZAxisMapping 4 5
EndSection
This way you don't have to wait a few months before the bug is fixed by
XFree86.
MS: (n) 1. A debilitating and surprisingly widespread affliction that
