Reverse Scroll on Fedora 18

Check your mouse ID by typing:

xinput --list


It will show a list something like this:

� Virtual core pointer                     id=2 [master pointer  (3)]
�   ��� Virtual core XTEST pointer               id=4 [slave  pointer  (2)]
�   ��� Microsoft Microsoft�� 2.4GHz Transceiver v7.0 id=9 [slave  pointer  (2)]
�   ��� Microsoft Microsoft�� 2.4GHz Transceiver v7.0 id=10 [slave  pointer  (2)]
� Virtual core keyboard                   id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
    ��� Virtual core XTEST keyboard             id=5 [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ��� Power Button                             id=6 [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ��� Power Button                             id=7 [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ��� Microsoft Microsoft�� 2.4GHz Transceiver v7.0 id=8 [slave  keyboard (3)]

After you get the mouse ID, then type this command to make the mouse scroll reversed:

xinput set-button-map 1 2 3 5 4

Day 5 in Jelapang

Just started to blog again. So this is why it started with day 5 instead of my first day.

This morning I went out from home still with my wife.around 5 minutes earlier than yesterday.

I saw some of people are the same people I was around with last night when I came home from work.Seems they are in morning shift too.

One thing I like here in the morning LRT is the train which is longer than afternoon trains.It's nice since I can be sitting all the way.

The trip from Jelapang to Choa Chu Kang took around 10 minutes.
