how to use wheel on Logitech mouse?
I bought a set of the Logitech cordless Desktop. It contains a wireless keyboard and a wireless mouse. The mouse has two buttons and a wheel in the middle. According to the user manual, the wheel may serve as the third button (in Windows), although the main purpose is for Windows Scroll. I set the ChordMiddle in XF86Config. Then run xev to see the effects. Push the wheel yields no event. The only option for me now is to use the emulate. But it is awkard, if you know what I mean. Is there any setup for X to recognize the wheel as the third button? Thanks. Jinsong

I have installed it myself to support my Logitech mouse, and scrolling windows works fine for me now. Go to: http://solaris1.mysolution.com/~jcatki/imwheel/ I am a Debian/Linux newbie and managed to get this one running without problems whatsoever. Hope this works for you :) //Christian [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bigfoot.com/~cdysthe If everything is coming your way, you are probably in the wrong lane
