Hi,

I've got a Logitech 4 button "MouseMan" (according to the label) mouse, and I can't \
get gpm to repeat the fourth button; it keeps being repeated as button 2.

This X configuration works (sacrificing gpm, of course):

[/etc/X11/XF86Config-4]
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Protocol"              "MouseManPlusPS/2"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
        Option          "Buttons"       "4"
EndSection

The configuration that doesn't work properly is:
[/etc/gpm.conf]
device=/dev/psaux
responsiveness=
type=imps2
append="-l \"a-zA-Z0-9_.:~/\300-\326\330-\366\370-\377\" -b 9600 -S \
:/etc/gpm-special/middle:/etc/gpm-special/right" repeat_type=ms3

[/etc/X11/XF86Config-4]
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Protocol"              "Intellimouse"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/gpmdata"
        Option          "Buttons"       "4"
EndSection

Does anyone know if this is possible?  There seems to be no "-4" option to gpm (or \
"-5" or ...), but it says in places it does allow wheel repeating, which IIRC are \
just 'buttons' as well.  I've tried the "mman" gpm mouse type, but it doesn't work at \
all.

Any ideas?
