I found that I had forgotten the proper procedure for getting the wheel = to work correctly the last time I configured a new machine.=20 If you are using moused, make sure you use the -z flag and probably have = it look like this: moused -t auto -p /dev/psm0 -r high -z 4 In rc.conf I have: moused_enable=3D"YES" moused_flags=3D"-r high -z 4" Then, in XF86Config the only thing you have to do is make sure that you = are using 'Auto' or 'Sysmouse' as the mouse protocol, /dev/sysmouse as = the mouse device and have the line: "Buttons" "5" In that section. If you do it this way it should work. I am not completely sure how to set up the mouse with the wheel = bypassing moused and doing it directly with X, but I believe you just = have to change the port and protocol (probably to 'Auto' and = '/dev/psm0', respectively) and add: "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"=20 To the XF86Config file. I use the moused method, and it has usually worked for me. The only time = I have ever had mouse wheel problems was when using a KVM switch that = did not seem to present the mouse capabilities properly to FreeBSD = during boot. -Will
