yep, after you use the clitmouse of a loooong time (mostly after I play a round of league of legends) and you try to move the cursor just slightly, it will ghost a little down or up. just pressing the red cap once will stop it until after the next game session.
but it's a damn small price to pay for the clitmouse.
no self respecting programmer should use any other mouse device. my bottom touchpad is configured in X to be 100% scrolling
- saucerful 14y ago> my bottom touchpad is configured in X to be 100% scrolling hey, that's a good good idea. i have always just had mine disabled. thanks!
- w1ntermute 14y ago> my bottom touchpad is configured in X to be 100% scrolling How exactly did you set this up? I tried Googling for it, but nothing relevant came up.

- sliverstorm 14y agono self respecting programmer should use any other mouse device. Besides, perhaps, a proper mouse? The trackpoint is very cool in that you don't have to move your hand, but extended use can become very uncomfortable.
- gouranga 14y agoMy wife has the same problem ;)
- aangjie 14y ago>no self respecting programmer should use any other mouse device. Hmm... I find the touchpad nothing but a pain. but that may be becoz of my hand position while typing. it keeps shifting the cursor. But other than that, i have developed a distaste towards reaching for the mouse. sometimes it's absolutely necesary, but i am on a mission to setup software to use my computer mouse-free. (i.e switching to a tiling window manager,etc..) but looks like that's too hard/unnatural
- reirob 14y agoI am using my laptops for more than 10 years without a mouse. I am so happy about this decision that I made ago - it is definitely possible and gives a boost of productivity and if you are traveling you do not need to care with you a mose. But it comes with a dependency - all my laptops need a trackpoint, and the best ones by far are on thinkpads. Before going mouse free I had to learn blind-typing (10 fingers, without looking at the keyboard). Then I started to learn VI(M) as editor and at some point it became so unnatural to move the hands from the keyboard that I started to use less and less the mouse until I realized that I do not need it at all.
- aangjie 14y agoI already do blind-typing and infact the unnaturalness of reaching for mouse is what makes me wanna go mouseless. I really haven't tried thinkpad after i moved to blind-typing. and sometimes do wish for it. Am curious How big of a dependency can a trackpoint become?? am i just naive to think keyboard operations should be sufficient enough??
- gcb 14y agotouchpad IS PAIN! that's why i said clitmouse, not touchpad. my touchpad was ignored until i transformed it in a square-scroll-wheel. that's a clitmouse http://www.clickykeyboard.com/2005/trackpoint/14288_classicdome.jpg http://www.clickykeyboard.com/2005/trackpoint/14288_classicd...
- natep 14y agoI feel that no self-respecting person would use that term, especially on the semi-professional HN site. It's distracting from your technical advice and overly dismissive opinion of people who do things differently from you.
