3 button mouse help

I have a mouse with a scroll wheel but the scroll wheel doesnt work with Mozilla on my GUI for some reason. Where can I check to make sure that I did install the right mouse and how do I fix it?

Good afternoon my dear Dirt,


May I ask what distro you are using?

It will probably be a setting within a control panel of some sort.


Cheers,

That is absolutely false!

Anyway...

For the answer to making your scroller work, check out this post...

Anyway, if you did a search on mouse scroll, you would have gotten your answer a long time ago.

And while you're at it, check out the "Configuring Wheel Mouse" section (or even the RH 8.0 secitons) of Simply Linux for a snazzy walkthrough.
