Trust Multimedia Mouse vs xorg.conf

This is the xorg.conf stanza required for a Trust MI-7700R multimedia mouse to set default left-hand use:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier      "Trust MM Mouse"
    MatchProduct    "Trust Mouse 15206"
    Option          "SendCoreEvents" "True"
    Option          "ButtonMapping" "3 2 1 4 5 6 7 8 9 10"
EndSection

And then it Just Worked, including horizontal scrolling.

I can’t vouch for the multimedia functions, though.

Memo to Self: Weirdly, the AA cells are in parallel, not series. Put them in “normally” and you get a dead short across a 3-V battery!

Maybe that’s why it’s obsolete?
