Re: scrolling wheel



Hi Sagi, Ishay,

In order to use the wheel on GTK and QT/KDE applications - all you need to do 
is one simple thing (I assume your mouse is connected to the PS/2 port and 
not the serial)

Lets look at /etc/X11/XF86Config file (if you're using Redhat 7.1 and XFree 4 
is supporting your card - then it's XF86Config-4)

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection

You'll need to make sure (following this example) to see that you have 2 
things:

1. Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2" instead of "PS/2"
2. Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" - if you have this line. If not - then 
add it
