 Posted: Fri Feb 11, 2005 9:27 pm Post subject: Problems With The Scroller On My Mouse |
 |
|
| I have a mouse with the little scroll button in the middle. It's a really handy thing to have for reading long pages in a browser and such. For some reason it's not working though. The button functions of it work, but not the scrolling functions. Is there soemthing I should have enabled in the kernel? Is there a package I need to install? Something else I need to enable? |

you want something like this in xorg.conf
| Code: | Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
EndSection

Depending on your mouse, besides the settings in xorg.conf you might have to run something like xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5".
