mouse wheel does not work after monitor change


Hi there

I just changed my monitor because it was experiencing some problems. After I did this and made the configuration changes using Sax2 (I'm using KDE on a Suse 9.0 professional system), everything was normal but the wheel of the mouse wouldn't work anymore.

I've looked for similar problems in the internet but have not been successfull in finding a solution. I checked the configuration file and everything seemed OK to me:

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse[1]"
Option "AutoSoft" "on"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "InputFashion" "Mouse"
Option "Name" "Auto;Generic"
Option "Protocol" "Auto"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection


Any hints as to what may be going on?

Thanks

Cristian, Santiago, Chile

PS. Just in case it helps I changed from a Viewsonic E771 monitor to a Viewsonic G790
