Actually, my touch pad only has a vertical scrolling edge, but I can't use gEDA / PCB effectively after having used _any_ other apps in GNOME. My workaround has been to patch my local defaults to be the GNOME'y default of Ctrl+Scroll == ZOOM. In the cases of gschem and PCB, this is just a matter of editing a config file. If I handed either app to a brand-new user, I'd feel more comfortable giving them the defaults I use - but wouldn't want to inflict the change on existing users. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!)
