We finally have the silly mouse talking to freebsd. After a lot of searching, one of our techs found that there's a button under the mouse that must be pushed simultaneously with the button on the receive. *sigh* Anyway, following through the handbook and a couple of messages here, I'm trying to get the wheel working. So far, once I roll down, future rolling up scrolls down in some programs (but it did that to start with!). I have two buttons, a wheeel, and the wheel button. I've added moused_flags="-z 5" to /etc/rc.conf (for just wheel it said 4) And edited the mouse section of /etc/X11/XF86Config to Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Buttons" "6" #Option "Emulate3Buttons" #Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50" Option "ZAxisMapping" "5 6" EndSection I've also installed imwheel, which is running. But still no wheel. Whatever I'm missing has to be simple. ANy hints? thanks hawk -- Richard E. Hawkins, Asst.
