Thumbs down Kensingon mouse not working right.


I finally decided to reinstall my Mandrake 9 so I could get back to originally installed software and be able to access my Windows 2k files. After reinstalling I realized that my mouse wheel didn't work right, but it did before I reinstalled, all on original drivers. I have a Kensington Mouse-in-a-box-scroll PS/2 version. Running on standard Linux Mandrake 9.0 ISO install.

Make sure the protocol is correct in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

Thank you I had the wrong driver installed in XF86config-4.
I needed just plain PS/2 Scolling Mouse.
