I determined what changes I needed to make -- the beta series wheel mouse patch only applies to switching workspaces, and thus only affected Screen.cc; the original patch I had was from x0r, and also had code for the window shading and thus affected Window.cc. I determined where to insert the code, did so, compiled, and everything works beautifully now.
Since I know others on the list like to use this particular patch, I've now got another question: how do I make the patch? I'm not a C programmer, and I don't normally create or use patches. Do I simply do a diff on my files versus the original source?
