(the mouse acted weird: the original profile is back, read the part with CAP
letters for more info)

That's mean!
I didn't change the source code related to Xenocara, I was just curious if
Xenocara compiles with different Makefile or something.. it'd be nice if at
least someone told me if it affects the mouse profile/driver somehow.

I have a lot of experience when it comes to helping each other and "do to
others as you want done to yourself"(or something like that phrase), which is
in some way like anarcho-socialism or anarcho-communism or whatthefuckever, the
point being that until it's something important as audio not working (I'm a
tester contributor and happy I did that), who's going to spend 3 days finding
the fucking reason as to why this happened?

OpenBSD already does enough stuff that's unintuitive and to those people very
time consuming (it took me like 1 week to compile everything the way I wanted
it to, partially because of it taking a long time to compile, but also because
of the object file thing which I made a thread about), so it's to be expected
that even little things can sometimes take a long time...

...due to developers making stuff for developers on THEIR LEVEL, which
futhermore disincentivizes new tinkerers or even potential developers/testers
from contributing, which in turn damages the initial developers themselves
because the tinkerers/potential developers might do something cool and
beautiful one day from which they could benefit as well.
It's simple logic, really.

I try to do good (if not better than that) things to others because it affects
me directly or indirectly, it's literally the buttefly effect which almost
noone understands because they don't want to understand things, it's too hard,
and sometimes obviously logical.

...continuing from above... you don't have to, maybe someone else will, and
maybe I help someone else related to OpenBSD (I did lots of times), and then
maybe that someone else helps you, etc, etc.

But source big big big, is there like a default OpenBSD Makefile I can compare
with the one in xenocara src or something like that?
I tried reading some Xenocara files... even READMEs are dizzying with it's
enormous sizes

WHILE TYPING THIS E-MAIL THE ORIGINAL MOUSE PROFILE IS FUCKING BACK!!!
WHAT??!!!?

I don't know how or why, but it's fucking BACK!
Possible cause: computer has been completely plugged out of power recently, but
I tried plugging out this mouse and it didn't change... could it be UEFI
related or something like that?

The funny thing is that the problem with simultaneously pressing
primary+secondary buttons has also been resolved... weird as fuck!
I hope that this bug or whatever has happened, does not repeat.

Or fuck - maybe it would be good if it repeated in case I can somehow help,
just like how I struggled with the OpenBSD audio bug for years until I found a
patch and tested it successfully
