commit 6ff978293ffff788d12b43c6db16fba6bcd8347c (patch) parent d6219cf865b70fa562e9e7b56fe449ef0f6170bd Author: Alex Karle <alex@alexkarle.com> Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2022 21:59:35 -0500 X11: Add xinput config for trackpoint scrolling This was a fun one to recreate. I knew roughly what I needed from some googling, but no one seemed to agree and no one linked any doc. I was able to find the doc by searching for "WS Pointer" in the xenocara repo and sure enough -- voila! doc! I tried to document what I learned--finding the button id's was a mix of Arch wiki and trial and error. Diffstat:
