Have a look at http://www.xfree86.org/current/mouse5.html There is a fairly standard mouse button numbering: 1 is left, 2 right, 3 pressing the wheel, 4 and 5 rolling the wheel. I'm guessing that with two mice the wheels will be 4, 5, 6 and 7 or even 5, 6, 7 and 8. If your mouse has a really weird mapping (I have an old 5-button Wacom serial mouse that swaps the usual roles of buttons 2 and 3), it's still possible to remap the buttons correctly but I don't think you can do it inside XF86Config. -- JDL Non enim propter gloriam, diuicias aut honores pugnamus set propter libertatem solummodo quam Nemo bonus nisi simul cum vita amittit.

xev may help in determining what buttons are what. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------
Xevent did help left is button 1 right is button 3 middle is button 2 wheel 1 & 2 are labeled button 5 wheel 1 is clickable as the middle button when not being used as wheel yet according to the clip of the actual file there is a button 4 also according to the XF86 site Option ZAxisMapping should be 4 4 5 5 to force recognition of the second wheele for use in horizontal scrolling. <quote> NOTE #1: horizontal movement may not always be detected by the current version of the XFree86 X servers, because there appears to be no accepted standard as to how the horizontal direction is encoded in mouse data. </quote> so it looks like its time for knoppix and direct edit for experimenting. seems I am on my own here.

xev may help in determining what buttons are what. Dear Carl,
There are lots of others who are very interested in getting these mice working on SUSE. Don't give up!! You seem to have gotten farther than the rest and <WE> appreciate that. Keep us informed. Thanks again ........

Well my experiments below lead me to one conclusion the mouse driver needs to be rewritten. I have never written a driver and dont know where to find the code. sorry after 2 hours thats the best I can do. wheel 1 scrolls up wheele 2 scrolls down regardless of direction wheels rolledsssssssssssss Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "5" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "EmulateWheel" "on" Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 4 5 5" EndSection up out of wheel 1 down out of 2 but only if wheels roll down Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "5" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 4 5 5" EndSection both move the verticle scroll down Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "4" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "YAxisMapping" "4 4" Option "ZAxisMapping" "5 5" EndSection wheel 1 down verticle down wheel 1 up verticle up wheel 2 opposite Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "4" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection wheel 1 up only 2 down only Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "4" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 4 5 5" EndSection wheel 1 down only 2 up only Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "4" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "5 5 4 4" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "5" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "EmulateWheel" "on" Option "EmulateWheelButton" "4" Option "Name" "Autodetection" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection change wheeles to 2 below repeated the above ditto results. with wheels 2 gives verticle scrolling each wheele opposite the other no horzontal.
