        The wheel is a mechanism for quickly repeating a key click on mouse 
buttons 4 
and 5. --- roll the wheel up, clicks mouse button 4, --- roll the wheel down 
clicks mouse button 5... and, with each click the screen scrolls a small 
amount-- up or down.  Some wheel mice (trackballs) actually have these extra 
buttons as well... 
        In Kontact the incremental scroll movements are (slower, gentler) than 
other 
apps...  Konsole and Firefox for instance--- the incremental moves are (fast, 
instantaneous, jerking) motions that make it difficult to read the screen 
while it is being scrolled. 
        What I am hoping is that there is a way to control the (speed, 
gentleness) of 
the incremental scrolling motions for the mouse wheel across all apps...  is 
this control in X, or is the control in the desktop /window manager, or is 
the control app specific... ?
