I have decided to just use konqueror for my web browser, since mozilla runs very sluggish on my K6-2 450MHz, however, the only thing that works in konqueror on my mouse, is the wheel, but my left and right side buttons do not change the pages back and forth, how do I fix this?
You have to add them to your X config. There's more threads about this then I care to count so just do a little search about getting 5 button mice working or something like that. Should find what you need.
Originally posted by Jeebizz I already have my xinitrc and xorg.conf configured accordingly, because under mozilla my side buttons and wheel works, but not under konqueror.. why?
It seems to me mozilla essentially built in they're own code for handling extra buttons on mice.... where as konquer depends on what X windows lets it do.
Great... Well I looked under the shortcuts for konqueror, but it doesn't let me specify left and right side buttons........doh........Well I hope those guys who made knoqueror will update their code to put this feature in, unless somebody here has figured out a workaround
