Just wondering that...
1) How to set up the 3rd button/scroll wheel working under RH 6.2...

2) How to make fontsize larger on netscape (because i'd like to use high resolutions...now those darn texts are WAY too small...)

Any help is more than welcome...Thx

I too,am waiting to hear an answer for your first question,but I think I can help you with the 2nd one:
Click on edit and choose preferences.Unless its already done,click the little white triangle to the left of the 1st item in the preferences list,otherwise click on fonts.In the page that appears,click the arrow on the drop-down list and choose your font size.Hope that helps.

I use imwheel for my scroll wheel. You can check it out at http://jcatki.dhs.org/imwheel.

This is nice! works like it should work.

...but does not scroll few lines per roll in netscape 6, like in netscape 4.7...

If I remeber correctly that is a configurable option in netscape 6. Look under scroll wheel.

hmm.. I got this little annoying problem... Sometimes when i change to another console (ie from X to ctrl+alt+2) my kbd freezes... I hate to allways start other pc (if not running) and telnet to the frozen pc and give command
#kill -2 'pid of X'

So i think it is caused by something in X? maybe this imWheel??

any ideas? thx...

I've never had any problems with imwheel locking up my keyboard. What kind of keyboard do you have? Is it one of those internet keyboards with the extra buttons?

nope..just common ps/2 keytronic.
