Re: Netscape scrollmouse

2002-06-27 Thread Bob Proulx
 With a PS/2 MS Intellimouse and XF86 4.* imwheel is not needed. The
 problem is not the mouse or the mousedriver, it runs perfectly well on
 all applications I use in Woody except Netscape 4.77. The problem
 therefore has to do with Netscape 4.* and/or its config files.

I think you are on top of things.  But does netscape 4.77 support the
mouse wheel?  I did not think so.  If you can go to a newer version or
Mozilla or Galeon or something newer then I believe it will have mouse
wheel support.  I think netscape 4.77 is just too old for that.  I
believe that is why the previous poster was suggesting imwheel.  That
converts mouse events to page-up / page-down, cursor-up / cursor-down
keys and works for programs that don't understand the mouse wheel.
But having tried that I did not like it and doubt if you would either.

In my first mail I explained why I need Netscape 4.*, I use other
browsers too. But when I need to use Netscape I would like to be able to
use the scrollmouse as I am used to in other Linux distributions I have
used before I moved to Debian.

Netscape 4.77 doesn't seem to support scroll wheels, at
least not easily. (Oddly, when I first started using linux I
used Corel Linux and I was able to get the scroll wheel to
work for about 5 minutes at the beginning of a Netscape
session before it cut out on me. I have no idea why and no
idea what I did to get it working at all, other than maybe
shear luck) However, Netscape is fairly customizable
and there is a way around it. I've snipped the relevant
section from my .Xdefaults file in my home directory. There
is a lot more than what I've appended, including entries to
disable blinking text and to replace the search button with
a google link, etc.

This one is the one I used for Netscape 4.77 on a potato
system that had been upgraded to woody. There was a
change made to Netscape between 4.75 and 4.77 (don't know which
way 4.76 goes) which made the old hack unworkable. This
one should do the trick.

I don't have Netscape installed anymore (I bought a new hd

You have to bind buttons 4 and 5 to the proper scrollup/down commands.

On my system there are examples in
/usr/share/doc/netscape-base-4/examples/netscape-base-4.Xresources for
doing this.

 Hi!

 I've got an PS/2 MS Intellimouse that works very well except that the
 scroll-wheel doesn't work in Netscape 4.77. Can someone inform me how I
 can make that work in Woody?

i use imwheel, there are other ways to use a wheel though
i think in X4 ..imwheel works for me .(even under X 3.3.x)

to use it i set my mouse protocol to IMPS/2 and set ZAxismapping 4 5
as well.

then i just run 'imwheel'.

you can customize it, i haven't ever looked into customizing it though.
imwheel apparently just translates mousemovements up and down to
page up and page down

Thank's for your reply.
 
With a PS/2 MS Intellimouse and XF86 4.* imwheel is not needed. The
problem is not the mouse or the mousedriver, it runs perfectly well on
all applications I use in Woody except Netscape 4.77. The problem
therefore has to do with Netscape 4.* and/or its config files.

Cheers,
HÖ

 Check out

 all the info you need is there.
 
The recommendation is for a ~/.Xdefaults file, there is no such file in
my ~/
So where would I put this script?

Cheers,

 You have to bind buttons 4 and 5 to the proper scrollup/down commands.
 
 On my system there are examples in
 /usr/share/doc/netscape-base-4/examples/netscape-base-4.Xresources for
 doing this.
 
Thank's for your reply.
Yes the file is there, but it is just an example script without a word
of explanation what one should do with it...:-(

Cheers,
