Re: Mouse problems

[Alexander Kirillov <kirillov math sunysb edu>]

I have USB scrollwheel mouse (no side buttons) which works fine - wheel
and all- with the following config:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection
