Naga Chroma Top Buttons and Tilt Wheel about naga_keypadmapper

[matthewrutter]

Same issue here. First we need to find out what's up with those sensitivity buttons. I'll check for any info on how the buttons are built into the mouse. Need to make sure they aren't isolated on purpose from the system by design and simply there to change internal sensitivity. As for the scroll buttons on the mouse wheel I'll read the code when I have time and see how I can add those buttons.

@ruttermatt If I get an opportunity to boot into my Windows VM later, I will snap a screenshot of the Razer Synapse configuration for this mouse. You can definitely change those keybindings in Windows (and in my VM I reprogrammed them to forward/back in the browser). I just don't understand why they aren't even being recognized in Linux in xev. I'm not familiar enough with X to be able to even remotely begin to troubleshoot stuff like this.

Using the openrazer "driver mode" - I am able to activate the sensitivity buttons but not the tilt wheel
Maybe you'll find some hints about the magic happening there.

If they do not appear as devices in xinput the idea in naga.cpp its no good I am afraid. @wenzler's link suggest that the people in openrazer are fiddling directly with the (black box, close sourced) driver of the mouse. That is infinetly more sophisticated than Naga_KeypadMapper. However I think it would be fun to have this type of access in Naga_KeypadMapper, maybe some kind of integration with openrazer would be nice. Maybe a new fork could be developed to work along openrazer.
On the other hand this is called Naga_KeypadMapper, but might as well be called WhateverInputDevice_KeyMapper, as the idea is really general. I think find the simplicity of this appealing.
