Aopen scroll wheel under X

**airhead** · 07-01-2002, 12:09 PM

Has anyone been able to get an Aopen O-35G to work under X? When I enable the scroll bit in XF86Config (IMPS/2) the mouse goes crazy. Any ideas, suggestions, solutions?

(BTW, this mouse has two scroll buttons)

Have you tried with a generic PS/2 instead of IMPS/2

If you find an answer to this let me know because I have the same issue with my microsoft wireless mouse. It works fine with PS/2 instead of IMPS/2, but obviously no scrolling and that sucks I've really gotten used to the scroll functionality.

Remember to have the ZAxisMapping set, and theres a few shortcuts in your (dot)-files you can use, to assure the programs will get the scroll allignment correct.

Code:

(defun up-slightly () (interactive) (scroll-up 5))
(defun down-slightly () (interactive) (scroll-down 5))
(global-set-key [mouse-4] 'down-slightly)
(global-set-key [mouse-5] 'up-slightly)
(defun up-one () (interactive) (scroll-up 1))
(defun down-one () (interactive) (scroll-down 1))
(global-set-key [S-mouse-4] 'down-one)
(global-set-key [S-mouse-5] 'up-one)

(defun up-a-lot () (interactive) (scroll-up))
(defun down-a-lot () (interactive) (scroll-down))
(global-set-key [C-mouse-4] 'down-a-lot)
(global-set-key [C-mouse-5] 'up-a-lot)

in your .emacs, will enable the scroll feature for your emacs
