Hello,

I have recently been trying to get my "wheeled mouse" to work under X
on 3.2-STABLE. I've read the stuff on

  http://www.inria.fr/koala/colas/mouse-wheel-scroll/

but can't seem to get any button4/button5 events to be recognized by X.
When I use "xev" to view events all I can see are button1/2/3 events for
the "standard" three buttons on the MouseMan+ mouse. This is a PS/2 mouse
and I have moused running via:

 moused_enable="YES"     # Run the mouse daemon.
 moused_type="ps/2"      # See man page for rc.conf(5) for available settings.
 moused_port="/dev/psm0" # Set to your mouse port.
 moused_flags="-z 4"     # Any additional flags to moused.

and I also have

  Section "Pointer"
     Protocol        "SysMouse"
     Device          "/dev/sysmouse"
     Buttons 5
     ZAxisMapping 4 5
  EndSection

In my XF86Config file. richard@cogsci.ed.ac.uk mentioned to me that I 
did not need the "ZAxisMapping 4 5" line if I ran moused with the "-z 4"
option. I tried that but still no dice.

My X/wm config is:

  X11R6.3-3.3.3.1
  Windowmaker-0.60.0

Anybody out there running the same versions of said software and gotten 
the wheel to work on a Logitech MouseMan+ mouse?? I would appreciate any
tips!

Thanks,

-Jr
