This is an issue with lxinput and lxsession, lxinput was not yet ported to the new lxsession. Reassigning to lxinput. Same situation here. Found something related at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/lxinput/+bug/563530 tried to create dir ~/.config/lxde configuration seems to be saved but logging out and in again, configuration is set to default while seeming to be saved. Here is what I do exactly: 1- ~/.config/lxde did not exist. Settings were not saved. Setting mouse to left handed seems to work, yet does not get saved. Re-logging in or launching lxinput again resets current setting. 2- manually created the dir. Left handed setting seems to be saved, until logging out. 3- Logged in again. Setting is reset and mouse works as right handed. Launching lxinput and it seems to be left handed but works as right handed. Here are my thoughts about the bug: 1- ~/.config/lxde does not get automatically created, hence preventing configuration changes to be saved. 2- after creating the dir manually, starting the session does not read the config. Thus the session settings are reset (to right handed). 3- starting lxinput makes lxinput to read the config but does not apply to the session (until changes are made.) After changing to right-handed, closing lxinput, starting lxinput again and changing to left-handed works. Upstream bug report: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2996390&group_id=180858&atid=894871 I will look into fixing this later today. I'm a little confused, but should I report the bug to the upstream or wait for the fix to be released for Fedora? There is no need to report it upstream, it is already known and there is already a fix in GIT. The problem is that the GIT version doesn't build ATM due to other problems. I have talked to upstream about this but he is busy with pcmanfm. I'll remind him once again... lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc14 lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc13 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc13 lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc12 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 12. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc12 lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 testing repository.
