Okay, so here's the skinny: I have a 3-button mouse with Z axis (wheel) that behaves as a PS/2 intellimouse. Running moused -f -p /dev/psm0 shows Z axis events reported when I use the wheel. However, in X using /dev/sysmouse as the mouse device, no Z axis events make it through. This is confirmed by running xev(8) and spinning the mousewheel in the window. No events are printed. This seems to me as an error in either the sysmouse driver or in the XFree86 mouse handling of the sysmouse driver, I really can only make wild guesses.. but those seem to me to be reasonable. Does anyone have any thoughts? -Reid
