if you havent got it to work yet try loosing the emulation stuff in your x-config , also ZAxisMapping "4 5" should have parenthesis around them, also i would change the protocol to IMPS/2

I never managed to get the wheelmouse to work in PS/2 mode, I had to switch to USB and it worked right away for some reason (and yes I tried all possible configurations while in ps/2).

I have a notebook toshiba 1900-703.
It has touchpad and a wireless wheel mouse
attached to ps/2 port(i assume). I've never got the wheel to work.


I've tried the following protocols:
"MouseManPlusPS/2" "ps/2"

the mouse worked, but w/o wheel.


Then i tried:
"intellimouse" "IMPS/2" "ExplorerPS/2"

and the mouse behaved out of control (i could
move, but after a while it skipped back. sometimes even clicks out of control).

Yes MMC, I have had the same issue with my laptop. The touchpoint works with the PS/2 protocol. If I then hook up an externel PS/2 mouse, it will work but the scroll wheel will not. In fact, I can use either the external mouse or touchpoint at the same time. However, to get the scroll wheel to work on the external mouse I need to change the protocol in the XF86Config to IMPS/2. I can still use either the external or touchpoint. If I unhook the external mouse the touchpoint does not like the IMPS/2 protocol causing the cursor to jump all over the screen. The problem is that both the external and touchpoint are on the PS/2 bus (they both work through /dev/psaux) and therefore you cannot specify seperate mouse protocols for the same bus in the XF86Config file.
