Hi!
You do not need the IMWheel program installed. I have this very same
mouse, in the file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 the pointer part looks like
this:
--
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

The mouse works beautifully in most applications.Cheers, Helgi Örn -- ~~~~ <http://www.sacred-eagle.com/> ~~~~ ~~~~~~ Gnupg signature ID 83AC4814 ~~~~~
