#16617 new bug

Reversing mouse buttons for left handedness has no effect after restart

Reported by: HAL Owned by: PreetpalKaur
Priority: normal Milestone: Unscheduled
Component: Preferences/Input Version: R1/beta2
Keywords: USB mouse, left handed, setting, Cc: HAL
Blocked By: Blocking:
Platform: All

Description

On the Input settings app I changed the mouse buttons 2 to 1 and 1 to 2, for USB mouse. In the animation pressing the right side button (2) on the moust does the same, animated. The same with left button pressing shows left animation in the input app. All the applications work as expected for left handedness for the duration of the session but after a restart although 1 stays assigned to right button and 2 to left button, pressing the right side mouse button now shows animation of left side button, in Input app. The mouse is really reset for right handedness

I am still seeing this bug in hrev55161 x86_64. Is there anything I need to do to speed up getting this fixed?

I will attach the syslog for session when I change mouse buttons for left handedness and a second syslog after a reboot where mouse buttons set back to default righthandedness.

Please attach acopy of your config/settings/Mouse_Settings file. After doing this, you can try deleting the file, and see if it works again after doing that.

I suspect a problem in migrating from the old to the new settings format.

These are mouse settings after I set for left handed then rebooted and they set back to default.

Deleting mouse settings did not work. After reboot they had gone back to default.

I would like to add myself to someone who is experiencing this also. I have arthritis in my index finger so switch mouse buttons to ease the pain. After each reboot I have to fix the settings again.

Thanks
