Was that the right file? It looks different than what everyone else is posting.

Since it's possible to click with the wheel button as well as scroll, I was hoping I could use it as a third button as well as a scroll wheel. However, I can't even get the wheel to even scroll, much less click. I downloaded and installed IMWheel, and followed the instuctions, but it still doesn't work. I've also read everything I can find about configuring mice, but nothing has been helpful. Maybe I'm just not understanding the instructions? (This is all pretty heavy-duty for someone who just came from Windows 9x (but it's worth it), so it's highly likely that I'm just misunderstanding most of the manuals.)Hello and welcome to Debian! It's a little tough in the beginning, but it does eventually get easier as you understand how to work with the whole process and configuration of things. You might post your XF86Config-4 with the exact input section that your mouse is in. That helps a lot. With a wheel mouse, you don't need any of the emulate 3 mouse buttons (since you have 3 mouse buttons). Also, to get scrolling, you will want to add a line like: Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Which reminds me... what version of XFree86 are you using? I'm using 4.1. Here is my mouse section for my USB mouse: ############################################### # USB Mouse ############################################### Section "InputDevice" Identifier "USBMouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" #change for PS/2 Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection HTH, Jeremy
