We finally have the silly mouse talking to freebsd.  After a lot of
searching, one of our techs found that there's a button under the mouse
that must be pushed simultaneously with the button on the receive.

*sigh*

Anyway, following through the handbook and a couple of messages here,
I'm trying to get the wheel working.  So far, once I roll down, future
rolling up scrolls down in some programs (but it did that to start
with!).

I have two buttons, a wheeel, and the wheel button.

I've added 

moused_flags="-z 5"

to /etc/rc.conf (for just wheel it said 4)

And edited the mouse section of /etc/X11/XF86Config to

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "auto"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
        Option      "Buttons" "6"
        #Option     "Emulate3Buttons" 
        #Option     "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping"    "5 6"
        
EndSection

I've also installed imwheel, which is running.  But still no wheel.

Whatever I'm missing has to be simple.  ANy hints?

thanks
