Razer Naga Trinity Mouse Wheel Left/Right Not Independent of Scroll Function

[BrockFrancis]

On the Razer Naga Trinity, pushing the mouse wheel left and right cannot be mapped independently of scrolling the mouse wheel. I realize this may be an issue with the driver and cannot be changed on Linux, but on the Windows Synapse app, these can be mapped separately from scrolling the wheel. Being able to map these separate would be a huge help. I am hoping a change can be made to the input remapper code to solve this.

Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04
Input Remapper Version: 1.4.0

Version 1.4.0 is pretty old. You should try upgrading first

I have the same behavior on Nobara 41 and Input Remapper 2.0.1.

FWIW, on my machine tilt scrolling to the right comes across in Input Remapper as:
Wheel Up + Wheel HI RES +

and tilting the wheel to the left is:
Wheel Down + Wheel HI RES -

and can confirm that remapping this combination will hijack normal scroll wheel behavior.

EDIT:
I dug more into this. Turns out the openrazer project has implemented these events, but only in something they call driver mode

I made this mode change on my machine and confirm that evtest now has tilt left/right emitting HWHEEL events properly, and those are picked up by Input Remapper properly, so I now have this fully working.

In sum, the openrazer drivers probably ought to fix these events by default? And isn't an issue with input-remapper, IMO.
