Eugenio,
... Trying to get wheel to work on Logitech first mouse in Netscape. Wheel
works for many other apps already.
Edited pointer section of /etc/X11/XF86Config to include the following:
Buttons 3
ZAxisMapping 4 5
#emulate 3 buttons (these are
#emulate 3 timeout commented out)
I also put a copy of imwheelrc in my user home directory.
I restarted X.
All this got the wheel to work in Netscape for all betas earlier than iso
beta3.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bobby
