Enable all settings in SetPoint
===============================

Install [uberOptions](http://www.mstarmetro.net/~rlowens/uberOptions/) to enable ALL settings in the *Logitech SetPoint* application.


Remapping buttons in Linux
==========================

You can use the following command to remap the buttons:

    xinput set-button-map <device-id> <button1> <button2> <button3> ... <buttonN>

The `<device-id>` is shown in the `xinput list` output as *Logitech USB Receiver [XExtensionPointer]* - you can use the name as a string or the id number.
You can query the actual button state using `xinput query-state <device-id>`.

The mouse has following button-ids:

| Button                | ID |
|:----------------------|:--:|
| Left mouse button     |  1 |
| Right mouse button    |  3 |
| Wheel button          |  2 |
| Wheel up              |  4 |
| Wheel down            |  5 |
| Wheel left            |  6 |
| Wheel right           |  7 |
| "Up" button           |  9 |
| "Down" button         |  8 |

See [remapping mouse buttons]({% post_url 2009-07-17-remapping-mouse-buttons %}) on what buttons X11 recognizes.

According to this the default configuration (`xinput set-button-map <device-id> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9`) already gives the correct button assignment.
If you prefer to swap the thumb buttons so that "Up" is *Thumb1* and "Down" is *Thumb2* you can do this using the following command:

    #                       input id: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
    xinput set-button-map <device-id> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 9 8
