I'll take a look at /dev/psaux etc. later. No, I didn't break my system. As mentioned before, for Debian stable, Debian testing, Ubuntu Maverick and Ubuntu Natty the mouse wheel doesn't work for the clean installs. How should I break mouse wheel support, when I break ALSA? I try to get rid of Debian's outdated version, because I need the current version. FWIW I'm making backups before I do such editing, anyway, even if I should have broken everything now, the mouse wheel never worked before. Thank you :) Ralf PS: I'll take a look at Microsoft mice too.
