MS Optical Mouse problem
Hello,
I've Mandrake 9.0 and during installation, I accidentaly chose standard mouse( 2 buttons ) for my MS Optical mouse( with wheel ). Now I'm unable to use the wheel's funcionality. When I run Hard-drake, under PS2, I'm not able to see anything that closly matches my mouse's functionality. Which one is the correct one or closest to MS Mouse with a wheel. Thanks. Kramer. |
bleh
I had the same problem with redhat 8.0
I don't know if it'll work in mandrake, but here's what I did. go to 'start' > system settings > mouse (I use 'start' because what do you call the linux thing?) there you should be able to change your mouse. The weird thing is, when I did mine it made my mouse go retarded. I had to restart X11 (ctrl+alt+backspace) to get my mouse to work normal. I would recommend a restart though. |

Try XF86Config man for more assistance This is the relevant section in the file The protocol IMPS/2 works, and the ZAxisMapping gets the wheel working Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection HTH Steve |
