I don't know the driver for this kind so you're quite on your own there. what is the mouse driver that XWin uses? XWin uses no special mouse driver. Perhaps I could use the microsoft default one and make it work. Right now it is using the IBM ThinkPad driver, which could be the problem. I found this on the xcygwin site: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-trackpoint which says, to add a rp4table.dat or a tp4scrol.dat with some entries. Actually it say to modify the file. I'm not sure if adding just these lines is enough or if some important parts are missing (like the header for the Pass 0 rules section) I did this and rebooted and still have the problem. So, is there any other way to see the history (other than to pipe it to a file and read it through vim) using xterm? shift-pageup and shift-pagedown. Or you can use the scrollbar on the left side (right click scrolls up, left click scrolls down, middle click sets cursor) bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
mouse wheel not working with xterm
Greetings! I am running cygwin with xwindows (XWin) and none of the xterm history is accessible through the mouse wheel. I have a IBM R50 laptop, which has a touch wheel on the right side of the touch-mouse. The touch mouse works perfectly, but the touch wheel does not. I have another laptop (compaq) with similar touch mouse/wheel options that is working ok. Yes, the mouse work perfectly on the MS Windows XP base. Any ideas? thanks, josé

Some mouse driver do strange stuff with the button and don't report it as normal scroll messages. bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
Re: mouse wheel not working with xterm
Ago, first of all, thank you for all your help. You are always willing to help. Thanks. What does xev report when you scroll? Well, it does not acknowledge the scroll. Here is an excerpt of the run: MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12741160, (92,1), root:(591,45), state 0x0, is_hint 0, same_screen YES MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12741180, (91,2), root:(590,46), state 0x0, is_hint 0, same_screen YES MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12741190, (91,3), root:(590,47), state 0x0, is_hint 0, same_screen YES MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12741210, (90,5), root:(589,49), state 0x0, is_hint 0, same_screen YES MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12741240, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x0, is_hint 0, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12742062, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x0, button 1, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12742442, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x100, button 1, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12743123, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x0, button 3, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12743744, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x400, button 3, same_screen YES ButtonPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12745937, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x0, button 2, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12746558, (90,6), root:(589,50), state 0x200, button 2, same_screen YES MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12757013, (88,4), root:(587,48), state 0x0, is_hint 0, same_screen YES LeaveNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 12757033, (82,-3), root:(581,41), mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyNonlinear, same_screen YES, focus YES, state 0 FocusOut event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyNonlinear ...
