wheel mouse

[elovkoff]

In the X86 config file I added 2 lines added 2 lines for the wheel support:
# Pointer section
# ************************************************** ********************

Section "Pointer"
Protocol "PS/2"
Device"/dev/mouse"

# For wheel support - can not be used with Emulate3Buttons
#
#by elovkoff
Buttons 5
ZAxisMapping 4 5


# When using XQUEUE, comment out the above two lines, and uncomment
# the following line.
# Protocol"Xqueue"

# Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice
# BaudRate9600
# SampleRate150

# Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice
# Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms)
# Emulate3Buttons
# Emulate3Timeout 50

# ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice
# ChordMiddle

EndSection

I restarted X and no wheel support still.....

Any ideas why?
thx.

P.S> BTW - is there any way to make X re-read configuration from X86config without reloading X?

thx

Try changing Protocol "PS/2" for Protocol "ImPS/2"

here is what I got and my thumb wheel works (well, vertically, not horzontallly -- that is effort, which I lack alot of these days)

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "off"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

That is the same I have, and mine works fine too. 'cept I have to use /dev/psaux, because my /dev/mouse is constantly being kidnapped by alien beings from outer space. :

Have you tried putting this part in quotations, like this,?

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

LOL ;D I have no idea but I thought it was funny for some reason!!

[mcdougrs]

Mine are too now so you can be happy that it is not just you!

I think that it is because of the badly ended code section byt GOP Schotty's last post in this thread.

WOE! Thats weird! The page is all funky ??? And it looks like I had something to do with it.
