How to get a Mad Catz R.A.T 3/5/7 to work on Arch Linux

This post isn't about me asking for help.  Instead it is a post about how to get a Mad Catz R.A.T. 3/5/7 mouse working.  I'm posting this for future Archers who have bought one of these mice.  They're a good mouse product but unfortunately there is a weird bug in the mouse's firmware that makes it "lose focus" on a desktop or "locks" your cursor into the middle of your screen seemingly at random.  Your mouse might also fail to click on things in a window or on a desktop.  It took me the better part of a day and a half to find the answers to fix this behaviour.  I couldn't find anything on this forum so I'm posting this for future Archers.  I am not the originator of the solution so I will post the relevant information from others' posts from two different web sources.  If you're interested in the technical aspects of why this behaviour is present in this type of mouse please scroll down.*
The problem as summarised by the guy at Delightfully Linux:
if you plug in the mouse without modifying xorg.conf, the buttons become unresponsive and the Ubuntu desktop will appear to have locked up even though the cursor still moves. This is the same issue with the black R.A.T. 7, and it has the same solution.
He gives you one way to fix this:
Put the code below into /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Mouse Remap"
MatchProduct "Saitek Cyborg R.A.T.7 Albino" #change this if you need to by using input-list to generate the correct product code
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 0 0 0 0 0"
EndSection
That button remapping full of zeroes will not let you use the side scroll button or the red button. 
However, another person posted a comment to Delightfully's blog who claimed that his code (below) will enable all of the R.A.T.'s buttons.  I have tried it and it enabled my side scroll wheel for a few minutes.  It did not last and I have no permanent fix at this time.  If someone else does have a fix for the other two "buttons" on the mouse please post it!
The code which supposeldy enables all of the mouse's buttons is here:
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/910-rat.conf and this file place in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
# Cyborg Mouse R.A.T. 7 in Ubuntu 10.10 (Extra Buttons)
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "R.A.T."
MatchProduct "R.A.T.7|R.A.T.9"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "Buttons" "17"
Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 0 0 8 9 7 6 12 0 0 0 16 17"
Option "AutoReleaseButtons" "13 14 15"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
EndSection
Save and reboot
I can verify that both sets of code do work on a R.A.T. 7 Contagion and that others affirm it works for a R.A.T 3 or 5.
One final method of fixing this without bothering with files in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d is to use a .Xmodmap in your home directory with this in it:
Put this file in your home directory file in the user directory:
This post isn't about trying to get any of the series' of R.A.T. mice from Mad Catz working. I'm posting this for future Archers who have bought one of these mice.

One final note: It seems that this mouse (on my rig at least) is incapable of scrolling in text boxes (such as the one I'm using to post this). I don't know why this behaviour is present but it was not like this, prior to using the previously written code that is, and I don't know if it is also fix-able. If you find out how to repair this function please post it in this thread.
I hope this helps whoever comes across it. :)
xinput --set-button-map "Saitek Cyborg R.A.T.7 Mouse" 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 0 0 0 16 17 18 19 20 21
*   If you're curious as to why this behaviour occurs look on this Ubuntu bug tracker forum.  If you want to read the whole thread it's here.   *
I hope this helps whoever comes across it.

There actually is a wiki entry that points to Delightfully's posts on his blog.  Honestly, I've never edited a wiki and I wasn't sure if I'd be stepping on someone else's wiki-toes (so to speak).  If there is interest in that, though, I'll learn to edit a wiki and add it.

  • How to get the image stored in archieve link as an attachment in work item.

    Hi All,
    through transaction OAWD we are storing scanned images.
    Once this transaction is executed a workitem appears in the inbox of the initiator with the scanned invoice as attachment.
    When the user executes the work item FV60 screen is displayed where the user enters the data based on the scanned invoice attachment.
    After the user Parks the document the custom workflow triggers and a workitem appears in the inbox of an approver.
    Our requirement is that the scanned image should also appear as the attachment.
    Can you please suggest how to get the image stored in archieve link as an attachment in work item.
    Regards
    Shraddha

    Hi Martin,
    with every parked document a scanned image is linked.
    I need to create a link under objects and attachments in the work item, such that when the user clicks that link the image is displayed.
    At present the following functionality is available.
    The BO used is FIPP
    Objects and attachments:
    parkeddocument:AK0108500001252008.(via FIPP binding with WIOBJECT_ID)
    On clicking the link below objects and attachments: the parked document AK0108500001252008 opens in display mode.
    Now we want to have 2 links:
    parkeddocument:AK0108500001252008.
    image.
    When we click on the link image then the scanned invoice linked to the document should get opened.
    I am able to get the image id of the the image through  SAP_WAPI_GET__OBJECTS,
    export parameter leading_object provides the detail.
    But I am not able to figure out how to use it in my workflow to display it as an attachment.
    Hope this will give a better understanding of my question.
    can you please suggest as to how I should proceed with it.

  • [GUIDE] How to get MapleStory working in Arch Linux

    MapleStory is a free-of-charge, 2D, side-scrolling massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by the South Korean company Wizet. Several versions of the game are available for specific countries or regions, and each is published by various companies such as Wizet and Nexon. Although playing the game is free, character appearances and gameplay enhancements can be purchased from the "Cash Shop" using real money. MapleStory has a combined total of over 50 million subscriber accounts in all of its versions. MapleStory North America (Global), for players mainly in North America and outside of East Asia, Southeast Asia and Europe, has over three million players.
    In the game, players travel the "Maple World", defeating monsters and developing their characters' skills and abilities as is typical in role-playing games. Players can interact with others in many ways, such as through chatting, trading, and playing minigames. Groups of players can band together in parties to hunt monsters and share the rewards. Players can also join a guild to interact more easily with each other.
    I am an avid mapler myself, however, I am also an avid archer! For some time, I have wanted to get MapleStory working on Arch Linux in some way, but nothing seemed to work. As you might have guessed by now, recently, while playing around with VirtualBox, I discovered a method to get MapleStory working on it! Though in this method you won't actually have MapleStory running on Arch Linux, you'll have it running on a VirtualBox Windows virtual machine, that is still pretty good compared to other people's experiences.
    I hope there are at least a few maplers on this forum, and if there aren't, I hope that someone will port this post over to other Linux, or even MapleStory, forums. Anyways, let's begin.
    1. Download and install a version of Virtual Box that is version 3.0+. The reason for this is that, only versions 3.0+ support an experimental DirectX Driver with 3D acceleration that is required for MapleStory to run.
    2. Create a Windows Virtual Machine, add a hard disk to it, and install and update Windows on it(preferably Windows XP, as it uses less resources than other contemporary Windows installations).
    3. Once you have done all you needed and wanted on that Windows installation, restart it, boot it into safe mode by holding F8 at the boot, and wait until the desktop is fully loaded.
    4. After you are at the desktop, go to "Devices" at the top of the menu of the Windows virtual machine, and select "Install Guest Additions...". Wait until Guest Additions finishes installing, and when VirtualBox asks you if you want to mount the disk containing the Guest Additions on the virtual machine, say "Yes".
    5. Run the main executable on the disk that doesn't have amd64 or x86 following its name. Follow the instructions it gives you, and when it asks you what components to install, make sure both of the boxes it shows you are checked.
    6. After the install is completed, the virtual machine will restart. After it restarts, shut it down.
    7. Congratulations! You now have DirectX installed on your VirtualBox virtual machine! Now you need to activate the "3D Acceleration", that enables it.
    8. In the VirtualBox main window, make sure you have your machine with Windows selected. Then, click on "Machine", and then "Settings...", at the top. A new window should pop up. On the left hand side, click on the display panel, and in the new settings section, tick Enable 3D Acceleration. Click "OK", to save the settings.
    9. Start your Windows virtual machine, install MapleStory just as you would on a normal windows computer, and run MapleStory.
    Notes: This way of running MapleStory is slower than by running it normally, on a normal windows computer. Also, try to not interact with your Linux desktop while playing MapleStory, because this can cause HackShield to shut down MapleStory, due to the fact that it believes there is a hacking attempt.
    If any of you port this guide to any other place on the web, please, credit me, neovaysburd5.
    For any further questions or inquiries, this goes to all of you, please contact me at [email protected].

    Alright, I've posted it in the wiki. I don't know if it meets the Arch Linux wiki standards, so if there is absolutely anything wrong with it, please fix it right away. Don't even ask my permission.

  • How to get externally made nav bar css into dreamweaver

    How do I insert 'purecssmenu' made nav bar into dreamweaver? I have a zip file with just the interactive nav bar in it. There used to be an insert nav bar but that seems to have vanished in cs6 presumably because Adobe want you to use Spry!!!
    I am completely new to this game but it is not helpful to be constantly told that you should learn coding.
    I just want to make 1 tiny personal site. Any constructive help would be very much appreciated.

    Sorry you're having such a terrible time not only getting the navbar to work, but interpreting the help here. (That's what it is... help, only you really didn't give us a lot to go on)
    You need to do one of two things if you'd like people to stop "guessing" what's wrong with your page.
    1.Upload your page to your server and post the URL here so others can download the source code and analyze it.
    or
    2. Copy and paste your ENTIRE page of code here so it can be seen, downloaded and viewed in someone else's Dreamweaver on their computer. Something like this:

  • How to get a new tab blank, solutions I have tried don't work

    How do I get a blank screen on a new tab? I have tried the about:config stuff and it will not turn into a blank page at all instead it's that stupid bing site with sweet packs.
    Do help please.

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

  • How to get text into a timeline

    I do not understand how to get text into a timeline in Premiere Pro.  I can work in titles more or less, change fonts and sizes, but I do not get how to insert the text into the timeline.  Am I even starting at the right place, going into "titles" first?

    Once you have made your title, drag it from the project panel to V2 on your timeline above your other footage.

  • F2 on Popups? (Or how to get the Component if F2 is not working)

    Hello Experts,
    I wonder if somebody has a tip how to get the component of popups?
    The F2 Help is not working there.
    The Popup I'm actually looking at is called by a button. Is it possible to find out the called component by looking at the button Event? (I have tried - but the source does not tell me any component)
    Thanks for answers...
    Regards
    Chris

    Chris,
    F2 should definitely work if it is a UI component.
    You see pop ups on button clicks and F4 value helps. F2 should work in these cases.
    For some attributes with F4 help, a DDIC search help is attached. Here F2 does not work.
    Anyhow to find out which component it is calling, you use this method
    check in the event handler(for button pop ups) or in the outbound plugs specifies in GET_V method(for F4 pop ups) if there is a code like
    CALL METHOD comp_controller->window_manager->create_popup etc.,
    A Component Usage will be passed to the method. You can check for the component usage in the Run Time Repository.
    You will get the component details.
    Regards,
    Masood Imrani S.

  • How to get rpm on Lion

    Hey all,
    I'm working on setting up some 3rd party software on my Mac Air and Mac Mini both of them running Lion 10.7.1. Now, I've gotten distributions of some of the software as rpm files. Now, unfortunately rpm doesn't come as part of Lion. I looked around and found old projects and distributions that allowed the addition of rpm and other typical Linux tools to osX. I managed to get a version of rpm loaded and configured but ended up with a transaction error once I went to execute it. I believe it has to do with a compatibility issue. When I looked into the version of rpm I got more deeply I found that it was intended for a 32 bit os and both of the Macs are 64 bit.
    If anyone has any insight regarding how to get a Lion-compatible 64-bit version of rpm setup and/or other common Linux items into Lion it would be very much appreciated.

    I have never used rpm files but Zipeg says it will open them - Zipeg.com
    I'm not really looking for decompressing the rpm, I'm looking for the other features like actually installing the rpm in place. There are a lot of utilities that would just "unzip" the rpm like Unarchiver, etc, but I'm looking for something that will do the rpm install...
    -Thanks

  • How to setup grub2 with arch linux and xen, lvm on luks

    OK, so I tried downloading this package from AUR:  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xen-git/ , but that has patching problems as noted in the comments.  It looks like the packagebuild sets up all the xen stuff for you, but I can't seem to get the package to install because of the error's while patching.  If anyone can point me in the right direction on what all the extra files in the PKGBUILD are for or how to debug problems with PKGBUILDs not working because of patches.
    So next I just tried to compile the latest xen from git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git (with ./configure, make, make install) and that seemed to go fine, but I'm a bit confused:
    1.  Do I have to do any additional configuration for xen when working with arch linux?  On ubuntu I could just compile the source, update grub, and make sure to start the x services at runtime.
    2.  How do I set up grub to load xen with this setup?  Right now this is my /boot/grub/grub.cfg:
    GRUB_DEFAULT=0
    GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
    GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Arch"
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cryptdevice=/dev/sda3:vgStorage"

    # note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
    # you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
    GRUB_GFXMODE=auto
    # Uncomment to allow the kernel use the same resolution used by grub
    GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

    # format "root=/dev/xxx" instead of "root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/xxx"

    # Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries

    I've tried throwing in a line like: XEN_HYPERVISOR_CMDLINE="cryptdevice=/dev/sda3:vgStorage", but nothing new shows up on the grub boot menu.
    First time trying to set up a non-ubuntu system, please help!

    As for XEN.... well you could always try QEMU/KVM or LXC.
    As for the LVM2-on-LUKS/dm-crypt
    My /etc/mkinitcpio.conf looks like this...
    MODULES="aesni_intel ata_generic ata_piix nls_cp437 ext4 intel_agp i915 dm-snapshot"
    BINARIES=""
    FILES=""
    HOOKS="base udev autodetect block keymap encrypt lvm2 filesystems keyboard fsck shutdown"
    /etc/defaults/grub
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cryptdevice=/dev/sda2:root:allow-discards"
    GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES="part_gpt part_msdos"
    GRUB_TERMINAL_INPUT=console
    GRUB_GFXMODE=auto
    GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
    GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true
    The running grub config looks like this
    /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    9 insmod part_gpt
    10 insmod part_msdos
    53 if loadfont unicode ; then
    54 set gfxmode=auto

    98 echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
    99 initrd /initramfs-linux-grsec.img
    100 }
    Things to note:
    Numerical UUID is the UUID of the ROOT partition.
    Alphabetical UUIS is the BOOT partition
    hd1,msdos2 AND ahci1,msdos2 are how the Grub Bootloader numbers the drives not Linux.
    I have my BOOT partition on a USB stick, and it is the Second partition.
    So, that would make it, Device 2 and Partition 2
    Device numbering starts at 0
    Partition numbering starts at 1
    Oh, and note that you don't need ":allow-discards" ... at all but certainly if you don't have an SSD. Also note that I included the line numbers so it is very clear that I didn't post the whole thing, but instead what I thought was relevant. Finally, I am loading modules that I don't even need, but what the hell... if it ain't broke, don't fix it

    Hey kevyg3,
