Configuring Mouse Buttons in Keymap.xml - LIJI - 2011-02-07

Hey,

I'm using a remote control where some buttons send keyboard keys while others send mouse buttons.

I'd like to configure keymap.xml with mouse buttons so left button works as "Select" and right button works as "Information". Mouse is disabled inside XBMC. I tried <key id="1"> (VK for Left Mouse button) without success.

I'm using Ubuntu Linux.

Thanks for anyone helping. Smile

The mouse isn't configurable in the way the keyboard and remote control are.

Is there any alternative? Like making Linux emulate a keypress whenever I left or right click?

The best solution is to get a different remote. The Microsoft remote or a full compatible is generally the best option.

Solved with btnx and some dirty tricks to get it running with XBMC. Thanks anyway! Smile
