I'm a Windows user, so there are some things with the mouse scroll wheel that are different...I scroll the wheel in Firefox now and it goes backward and forward pages...In Konqueror, it scrolls horizontally...How can I emulate the Windows XP default scroll behavior?
While I'm at it, it's kind of related...I've got some unused keyboard buttons at the moment. My windows button on the left side is mapped to the K-menu, but the one on the right does nothing, and the windows context key (left of the right Ctrl on newer windows keyboards) does nothing...and heck, while I'm at it, maybe scroll lock and some of the function buttons, heh...And it's one of those Internet keyboards so there are some extra buttons on the top...I'm not so much concerned with those...But I assume there's some way to map the others.
And I don't have side buttons on my mouse...just the normal 2 and a scroll button, so I just did the "6 7" --> "4 5" replacement and it worked. Thanks.
That made my scroll wheel go back and forward in a web page, and
my front left-side button has the same function as right-click, which
opens a menu on the page. The back left-side button opens a dialog
button which says "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."
/me thinks some of them buttons is out of order ;p
