In rc.gpm edit the lines that say: /usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/mouse -t ps2 to /usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/mouse -t imps2 Then in your XF86Config make sure in the pointers section you have something like this: Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Buttons" "5" Options "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" The scroll will work nice and no bad behavior. Happy slaking
