5 buttons in Linux and other tips

2005-07-27T17:45:00.000-04:00

In this post I will put diferent tips that I have used to make my Debian more confortable:

To use the 5 buttons of the mouse, you have to edit the mouse section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or xfree86.conf):

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier  "Mouse1"
       Driver      "mouse"
       Option      "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
       Option      "Emulate3Buttons"
       Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"
       Option      "Buttons" "7"
       Option      "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
EndSection

And then add to the file /etc/X11/Xsession to get the buttons in the right order:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5"

If that is not useful you should make a script like:

#!/bin/sh
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5"

And then make it feasible and add it to startup, In Kde you can easily put it into the ~/.kde/Autostart/ directory.

To add a user to certain group:
adduser user group

Web Page Hacked

2005-07-27T15:45:00.000-04:00

Yesterday morning I realised that my site had been hacked. Luckyly the autors seems not to be just lamers and they only wanted to probe theirs skils, so they didnt delete the site and only changed the index. At first I say "Oh, everything deleted... I will have to do all again", but then I noticed a note that says "This is just a message, nothing was deleted", so I fell a lot better. I mail them yesterday to see if they want to tell me the security bugs that my site might have, to improve the security of my web... no answers yet.
