What are linux users using in the way of mice these days?
I use a standard 3 button logitech mouse but was wondering if any are using
any of the more fancier mice available these days and good the support is for
them.
For those that dont get enough of php with server-side programming:
PHP-GTK http://gtk.php.net/
PHP-GTK is an extension for PHP programming language that implements
language bindings for GTK+ toolkit. It provides an object-oriented
interface to GTK+ classes and functions and greatly simplifies
I looks quite good, but in my opinion PHP should be used for what it was meant
for - web dev.

I use a unbranded USB optical mouse with a scroll wheel. Works perfectly
and I'll never use PS/2 mice again. I also love the scroll wheel --- most
applications support it now.
And it cost $30 to

I use a USB Logitech mouse with a scrollwheel. First time I used it (over a

my XF86Config file, but it's been peaches and cream since then.

Hi Paul,
I do think you should re-evaluate your perception of what PHP was meant
for. I am of the view that it has steadily been stepping out of its old
shoes and PHPv5 is promising very advanced OO capabilities.
