Not reading mouse buttons X3, X4, X5 in Win 10

Post by Five_Finger_Discount »

I am attempting to use Windows 10 relaying via the network to a GIMX instance.

Keyboard appears to be fully functional (although capslock works as capslock as Windows toggles the LED).
Mouse movement works, left, right and middle buttons work.

Buttons X3, X4 and X5 do not work.

I have launched GIMX with --status and saw every event except X3, X4 and X5.

This mouse works fine in a linux machine with GIMX.
Buttons X3 and X4 work in chrome in Win10 (only app that I use that appears to use them). This means windows is seeing the events.

I have tried GIMX with both "physical device" and "windows event" with the same results.

I am unsure where to look for getting support for these buttons in Win 10 for use with GIMX.

I got it working. I would have deleted this thread but I do not appear to have that ability.
