-   Here's the relevant portion of my XF86Config file:

# ***************************
# Pointer section
# ***************************

Section "Pointer"
Protocol "MouseManPlusPS/2"
Device "/dev/psaux"
ZAxisMapping 4 5

# ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice

# ChordMiddle

EndSection

Scrolling worked fine with the beta version of Mandrake 8.1 (and it works with Red Hat 7.2 distro.) Any ideas? Thanks

-   Which X server are you using. If it is XFree86 v4, you should check '/etc/X11/XF86Config-4' for the ZAxisMapping, which should look
something like this:

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

-   At the time I wrote this, I was running XFree86 4.1; I've since switched to 3.3.6 (due to a dispaly problem StarOffice was having with 4.1). Either way, XF86Config and XF86Config-4 are both configured for ZAxisMapping, but it still does not scroll.

-   Well, I managed to figure it out. It seems that MouseManPlus/PS2 doesn't work, even though I have a Logitech MouseManPlus. The Generic PS2 Wheel Mouse does work, however.

-   Not sure if you are still having a problem.... are you?

-   Sorry. Yes I got it working. I switched to the generic PS/2 driver and that works (even though it's a Logitech mouse).
