USB Wheel Mouse --no xorg or XF86Config
 
Hello, after installing cAos, I found out that the wheel on my mouse did not work. I have searched the forums, and all of them resolve with configuring xorg or XF86Config... my cAos system do not have either these . . .

This version of xorg does not require a configuration file. Without it, xorg itself probes for the best configuration which as you noticed, unfortunatly does not include support of mouse wheels.

In a nutshell, I would recommend to create a default config file using the command 'X -configure', and then copy it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit to your liking. The default config file will not work BTW. The mouse needs to be configured from /dev/mouse to /dev/psaux.

Good luck, and please feel free to update our wiki at http://wiki.caosity.org.

Thanks!
