1. Solaris
A colleague of mine showed me a neat little trick in Solaris (I would guess sol 10 but perhaps earlier versions too) that I'd not seen before and thought I'd share here in case it's new for someone else also.
As most of you know, Solaris has the annoying habit of producing error messages when... (6 Replies)

XkbSetDeviceButtonActions(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbSetDeviceButtonActions(3)
NAME
XkbSetDeviceButtonActions - Change only the button actions for an input extension device
SYNOPSIS
Bool XkbSetDeviceButtonActions (Display *dpy, XkbDeviceInfoPtr device, unsigned int first_button, unsigned int num_buttons);
ARGUMENTS
- dpy connection to X server
- device
structure defining the device and modifications
- first_button
number of first button to update, 0 relative
- num_buttons
number of buttons to update
DESCRIPTION
XkbSetDeviceButtonActions assigns actions to the buttons of the device specified in device_info->device_spec. Actions are assigned to
num_buttons buttons beginning with first_button and are taken from the actions specified in device_info->btn_acts.
If the server does not support assignment of Xkb actions to extension device buttons, XkbSetDeviceButtonActions has no effect and returns
False. If the device has no buttons or if first_button or num_buttons specify buttons outside of the valid range as determined by
device_info->num_btns, the function has no effect and returns False. Otherwise, XkbSetDeviceButtonActions sends a request to the server to
change the actions for the specified buttons and returns True.
If the actual request sent to the server involved illegal button numbers, a BadValue protocol error is generated. If an invalid device
identifier is specified in device_info->device_spec, a BadKeyboard protocol error results. If the actual device specified in
device_info->device_spec does not contain buttons and a request affecting buttons is made, a BadMatch protocol error is generated.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadKeyboard The device specified was not a valid core or input extension device
BadMatch A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has correct type and range, but is otherwise
invalid
BadValue An argument is out of range
