Hi,
I have a Logitech Cordless wheel mouse, too, and I stepped into the same
problem of you. Sorry for the delay in answering, but I've been in holiday,
and finally (unfortunately) I'm back.
Basically, using the wheel means adding two more buttons, that are
'pressed' when the wheel is scrolled up and down; there's a program called
'imwheel' that does it. You'll need to make some changes in some
configuration files (xf86config, if I remember well). The procedure should
be described in a text that comes with the program; anyway, I found it in an
italian document. I followed it, and now it works *great*. If you can't find
the program, I can send it to you; if you can't find the right procedure,
write me and I'll describe it, or give the URL, if you can understand
italian...
Well, hope to have been of some use!
Mano :)
