This reminds me. I'm experiencing weird behaviour when using the mouse wheel on my Fedora Core 3 system at home. Basically, it appears that other events besides the button down and button up events are being generated. A good example of this is when I try scrolling in Firefox. If I scroll down, it will scroll down fine as long as it is the last page I've viewed. If I had previously viewed a page and gone back one page and I scroll down, it'll jump back to the previously viewed page. However, anytime I try scrolling up on a page, it starts to scroll up and then I also get a popup menu. The same if I try scrolling in a terminal. The strange thing is the Fedore Core 3 system I use at work scrolls just fine. I've modified my home xorg.conf file so that they have identical mouse InputDevice entries. No joy. Are there any other configuration files or applications that could be generating the extra events? FYI, I don't have imwheel running on either machine. The only other wildcard is my home mouse is a PS/2 wireless, connected via IOGear PS/2 KVM. My work mouse is a USB corded connected via an IOGear USB KVM. Bizarre. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Jon Wahlmann -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
