Mouse scrolly doesn't work, even though added axis option in config file.
Just to let everyone know that this mouse scrolly works on any other Distro except Slackware, (10 + 10.1) how do I know it works? Because its working on my laptop... right now. In 20 minutes it will be working on my laptop. So anyways I did the whole options axis 6 7 dealy in the xorgconfig file, but the pos doesn't bother to read the input. What do I do!
what type of mouse do you have? if you use the same mouse on a different distro, boot up that distro with this mouse, and look at that xorg.conf file and write down how it has setup the mouse, and simply use the same setup for your slack system.
i have a logitech mx700 wireless mouse and it took me days of searching and trial and error to get it to work but it finally does. heres my mouse section for my slack 10.1 xorg.conf

Hi,
sorry for asking myself something in this post...
However, I also have this mouse, it works in X but if I enable gpm, my slackware freezes at the end of boot and neither keyboard or mouse work.
Could you please tell me your gpm configuration (if any) ?
