So far everything I have seen about the wheel mice are for ps2's. I have a USB mouse with a wheel(Logitech cordless) but nothing regarding USB wheel mice is mentioned at least nothing that I have found. Does anyone have any information on making the wheel for a USB mouse work?
Try looking at this: "Setup an USB mouse for X11" http://sdb.suse.de/sdb/en/html/mlasars-mbanse_usbmouse.html I have no experience with these devices but usually the SDB (Support Data Base) is very good. -- Cheers, Jonathan

I got my USB MS Optical Intelimouse (Explorer or whatever modelname it is) up and running rather fast. BUT! I cant get the hang of the extra two side buttons i have... How and where do i set the functionality for them? I would like to use them for back/forward in my browser. Any hints? -- /Rikard -----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***----- Rikard Johnels Phone: +46 (070) 464 99 39 Computer Consultant Email: rjhn@linux.nu -----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----***-----

I believe there numbers are 6 and 7, and it can keep going. I remember seeing a HOWTO or info page on the web a few months back about it. Did you try to search www.google.com/linux? Good luck, Curtis On Sunday 20 May 2001 13:54, Rikard "DustPuppy" Johnels wrote:
