Mine works like the latter, > I have yet to have it work as a scroll wheel, even though > my /etc/X11/xorg.conf contains the very same ZAxisMapping. This (6.1) box has a Logitech TrackMan Marble+ trackball. When pressed, the wheel acts like a center button. When rolled, it acts like a scrollwheel. I have turned off Xterm scrollbars, because the wheel does the job without taking up screen space. I had a bit of a hassle when initially setting up Xorg, because I didn't particularly want to enable console mouse and therefore needed to have Xorg use the mouse directly. Other than that, it "just works". There is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf on this box. What I take to be the relevant parts of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf are: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psm0" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7" EndSection
