vlc side effects?

[jethrick]

Since installing vlc.tcz, I've noticed a couple annoying side effects:

1) After rebooting, my pointer buttons are reversed. In others words:

> xmodmap -pp
There are 5 pointer buttons define.

     Physical    Button
       Button      Code
          1             3
          2             2
          3             1
          4             4
          5             5

So I wind up always having to xmodmap them back to normal.


2) I can no longer link against libreadline.a unless I load vlc.

In other words, even though I've done this:

tce-load -i compiletc gcc gdb readline-dev

the following

cc -g -o program -lreadline -lcurses program.c

fails with linker complaints about not being able to find readline() or add_history() UNLESS I first load/run vlc.

tce-load -i compiletc gcc gdb readline-dev

Not relevent to your problem, but loading compiletc will load gcc anyway..
