I have everything set up so that I can use my mousewheel in certain applications like Netscape, and Nedit (in my .Xdefaults file as I have read on the internet). It works fine when I first boot X (with the latest gnome from ports, and the latest sawfish), and I can scroll in the Netscape window with the wheel, but then after some time, it stops working in Netscape (it still works in Nedit though). I have also noticed that my keybindings stop working in Gnome (alt F2 should bring up the run menu, but it doesn't after running X for a while), and they also stop working in Nedit and instead of alt-s saving, I set some sort of "" character inserted into my document. I don't know if there is something that I am doing that is making it do this, or if a process is run in the background at a certain interval via cron that is doing it. I've tried to make it happen by going through a list of things I commonly do, but none of them seem to cause it (telnetting, displaying remote applications on my box). I'm clueless here, and I would appreciate greatly any help (or other people typing that they have had similar problems, so I know that it's not just me :)) Sincerely, Caleb Land (bokonon@rochester.rr.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
