    Btnx / Logitech Mx Revolution mouse

    I have trouble with btnx. It has been working properly before but after I did som system updates only left/right button works.
    Using Btnx GUI to set the settings for each button does not do help me anymore.
    Pls take a look at btnx.config


    From etc/btnx/btnx_config_Web

    Code:
    # This is a btnx configuration file generated by btnx-config
    
    Mouse
    vendor_name = Logitech
    product_name = MX Revolution
    vendor_id = 0x046d
    product_id = 0xc51a
    revoco_mode = 2
    revoco_btn = 3
    revoco_up_scroll = 12
    revoco_down_scroll = 12
    EndMouse
    
    Button
    name = LeftClick
    rawcode = 0x01000110
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = RightClick
    rawcode = 0x01000111
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = PageBack
    rawcode = 0x01000113
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = PageForward
    rawcode = 0x01000114
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = PageDown
    rawcode = 0x02ff0006
    enabled = 1
    type = 1
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    command = 
    uid = 0
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = PageUp
    rawcode = 0x02010006
    enabled = 1
    type = 1
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = TopButton
    rawcode = 0x010000d9
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = KEY_N
    mod1 = KEY_LEFTCTRL
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = Thumb_Back
    rawcode = 0x0100011a
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    
    Button
    name = Thumb_Forward
    rawcode = 0x01000118
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE
    EndButton
    Seems like the GUI part cant make changes stick anymore.
    If the btnx folder I also have another config file named btnx_config_Default.
    Here is the code:
    Code:
    # This is a btnx configuration file generated by btnx-config
    
    Mouse
    vendor_id = 0x046d
    product_id = 0xc51a
    revoco_mode = 4
    revoco_btn = 3
    revoco_up_scroll = 12
    revoco_down_scroll = 12
    EndMouse
    
    Button
    name = LeftClick
    rawcode = 0x01000110
    enabled = 1
    type = 0
    delay = 0
    force_release = 0
    keycode = NONE
    mod1 = NONE
    mod2 = NONE
    mod3 = NONE

    Rebooting xubuntu i get this msg:

    Code:
    starting btnx: Button Extension - mouse button rerouter deamon
    	btnx: uinpit midprobed successfully
    	btnx: Opening config file: /etc/btnx/btnx_config_Web
    	btnx: Error: invalid arguments for command execution configuration option.
    	btnx: You must specify at least one item: /path/to/executable_name
    	btnx: Example: /usr/bin/gedit
    	btnx: Then append optional arguments: /usr/bin/gedit/ --new window /etc/btnx/btnx_config
    	btnx: Fatal error in config_split_command. Exiting...
    	btnx failed to start (error code 151)
    
    btnx successfully started
    Does anyone know what this means? And look at the last line......suddenly btnx starts anyway?

    Those config files can be edited manually. But I am not sure what values to put where to hammer this into shape.

    If anyone has a working config file for the Revo Mx and has it working properly in ubuntu (btw I run hardy LTS) pls copy your file and post it here so I can start making changes.

    Read somewhere that btnx has been discontinued. But cant find back to that. Can people confirm or deny that?

    Will it be possible to once again have logitch Revo MX work with hardy LTS?
