isadora Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Since updating Mandrake10OE yesterday, including some X-packages, the mousewheel won't function any longer. I went through xf86config several times, good exercise, but no better results. The wheel of the Cordless Logitech MouseMan Optical still isn't in any mood of being scrollable. I found the following section about the mouse in the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4; Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Can anybody give me some hint?

isadora Posted September 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Found the solution already after reading the /var/log/xfree86.0.log Using config file: "/root/XF86Config-4", instead of Using config file: "/etc/X11/XF86Config-4" Renamed the XF86Config-4-file on /root and restarted X. Can now scroll again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieJohn Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Hello isadora and welcome to the MUB. What a polite person you are. You pose a problem, you solve it yourself but you kindly let know how you did it. I like and respect your kind of person. Cheers. John.
