Great !!! I've been trying to make all of my buttons work for a long time now and had the same problem (MX5000 and MX1000 on the same USB receiver)... Thanks for the tip ! By the way, I wrote a little app that goes with mx5000-tools to use the LCD screen of the MX5000 keyboard if you like you can take a look here : http://snouffy.free.fr/linux/mx5000.html And thanks again I can finally use the tilt wheel to make my cube rotate !!! :-) Wow !!

It's a pain, but I was never able to get the custom event to work that they show you how to create in all the tutorials. I'm not at home right now, so I cant say exactly what I have setup. I'll double check when I'm home but I don't think I had to do anything special to my settings. I am pretty sure it was just detected as Button10. I don't even use xbindkeys at this point. I haven't tried using the media keys, but I'll try what you said here and if I hit a snag I might just be emailing you for a little help! Thanks for stopping by.

putting expose on one of the thumb buttons seems like a good idea, i just can’t get this to work. can you maybe explain how you achieved this? what keycombo to trigger expose do you use? how do you trigger it through the mousebutton? using xbindkeys and what – xte or xvkbd? whats your .xbindkeysrc looking like? etc…
really would like to get this working as well…

cheers – anti

ps: oh, do you use your keyboards media-keys? are they working? i finally managed to have them working by using the ‘Dev Phys’ and ‘SendCoreEvents’ option in xorg-conf and modifying the udev-rule with an additional ‘filer’ like posted in the thread somewhere…

I will give this a go and see if it fixes my issues with getting this to work. I too have an MX1000 as well as a wireless keyboard (Duo something somethin...) and a second mouse (I hate it when I forget to charge the MX1000 and I have to wait for it to charge)... Hopefully this will work. Thanks a bunch. I will give this a go and see if it fixes my issues with getting this to work.
