No it will not not get trashed but you should use Yast anyway. Goto YaST2 -> Hardware -> Graphics Card and Monitor (sic) -> Click on Change under Graphical desktop environment -> That will bring up SaX2 click on Input-Devices -> Mouse -> Change Configuration -> Click on the first mouse -> Expert tab -> check the Enable Mouse Wheel box. Then click on OK, then Finish, then Finalize. That should let you test the config and if it is good you can restart the Xserver. If you want to use the side buttons on your Microsoft mouse you will have to read the release notes on XFree86 4.3.0 at: http://www.xfree86.org/current/mouse6.html#28 http://www.xfree86.org/current/mouse7.html and edit the config by hand. NOTE: The side buttons will not work if you are using a second pointer that doesn't have 7 buttons, sorry I have been there it is broken. :-( Good luck, pben On Thursday 10 July 2003 04:12 pm, John Lowry wrote:
Excellent question--the file was generated by Sax2. If I edit it manually, it'll get trashed, no?

You need to add the following lines to the mouse section of your XF86Config file:
Option "Buttons" "5" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Side note - Why do you have 2 mouse entries in your config file? And why are they Mouse[1] and Mouse[3]? Seems odd to me.
