Continuing on from my last post. After a reboot my mouse resumed correct left-handed operation without my having to go back into the system settings.
Here is my xlist after the reboot with my mouse working: (but it looks identical to the non-working state) xinput list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Microsoft Microsoft 5-Button Mouse with IntelliEye(TM) id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Tripplite B015-000 R0.74 USB to PS2 adapter. id=14 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=16 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_2HDM id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Tripplite B015-000 R0.74 USB to PS2 adapter. id=13 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=15 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Dell WMI hotkeys id=17 [slave keyboard (3)] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/429277 Title: left-handed mouse no longer working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/429277/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
