Just a long shot, but within Netscape, I've found that scrolling with the mouse wheel is also dependent on the state of "Num Lock" on the keyboard. If "Num Lock" is on, then the mouse wheel doesn't scroll (presumably due to some modifier being set in the X event, I dunno). Perhaps your new motherboard comes up with "Num Lock" on by default? louie > > Hi, > > I'm running FreeBSD 4.4RC1.
