Mousewheel isn't working with kernel 2.6
My mousewheel was working in kernel 2.4 but when I upgraded to 2.6 it stopped working. Middle-click still works though... how do I fix this?

I had the same problem - I didn't know the middle button still worked.
Did you compile PS/2 mouse support in or as a module? I think this problem occurs only with the module psmouse, but I'm not sure - I wouldn't recompile if it takes ages - I've got it working with 2.6.6, but I've got problems of my own. I've got (not 100% cert as I'm in Windows atm): Input Devices <*> PS/2 Mouse Support <*> PS/2 Mouse Support /dev/psaux by default and a couple of others in the same place that say they are required for PS/2 devices. Not very helpful I know, but at least I know I'm not alone. |
There's something with "/dev/psaux by default" there? I can't find anything like that. But PS/2 Mouse is enabled. Your mouse wheel works?

In actual fact I found my mouse didn't work altogether. Do you have
ZAxisMapping "4 5" or something like that in you mouse section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4? Perhaps 2.6 needs this and 2.4 doesn't. |
Yes I do have that.
Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" |
Try:
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" |
I have tried that and it didn't help
But today I was searching and I found the solution. Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" works perfect. |
